Join NLIHC and our partners at the Campaign for Housing and Community Development Funding (CHCDF) on February 10 from 2 to 3:30 pm ET for a webinar on fiscal year (FY) 2023 appropriations and the outlook regarding an FY24 spending package!
CHCDF is an education, strategy, and action coalition comprising more than 70 national organizations working to ensure the highest allocation of resources possible to support federal funding for affordable housing, homelessness, and community development programs. CHCDF’s members represent the full continuum of national housing and community development organizations, including faith-based, private sector, financial/intermediary, public sector, and advocacy groups.
Webinar attendees will learn about funding for affordable housing, homelessness, and community development resources enacted in the FY23 budget and the emerging threats to federal resources in FY24. We will share ways advocates can urge members of Congress to provide the highest possible funding in FY24 for HUD and U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) affordable housing, homelessness, and community development programs and reject calls to dramatically cut federal spending on domestic programs.
The panel will be moderated by Dara Baldwin, director of national policy at the Center for Disability Rights and an NLIHC Board member, and will include:
- Cynthia Cuestas, Council of Large Public Housing Agencies
- Tess Hembree, National Association of Housing and Redevelopment Officials
- Sonya Acosta, Center on Budget and Policy Priorities
- Linda Couch, LeadingAge
- Alayna Waldrum, American Association of Service Coordinators
