NLIHC invites advocates to participate in Capitol Hill Day on Thursday, March 21, 2024. Capitol Hill Day is part of NLIHC’s Housing Policy Forum 2024: An Unwavering Path Forward to Housing Justice, which will take place on March 19-21 at the Hilton Capitol Hill Hotel in Washington, D.C. NLIHC’s forum will feature an advocacy center to help attendees plan for Hill Day advocacy.
Held every year during NLIHC’s Housing Policy Forum, Capitol Hill Day gives advocates the opportunity to meet with their members of Congress to urge them to oppose funding cuts to affordable housing and homelessness programs, expand resources for vital programs, advance anti-racist policies, and support legislation that would improve the lives of millions of low-income people. The advocacy center will be staffed by members of NLIHC’s team who will provide advocates with tools, resources, and guidance on what to expect when meeting with members of Congress during Hill Day. Attendees will also have access to resources and best practices regarding how advocates can incorporate their own stories and experiences into their advocacy for federal investments in affordable housing and homelessness programs.
Be sure to sign up for Capitol Hill Day by checking the “Yes, I will participate” box when you register for the Housing Policy Forum. Email [email protected] with any questions.
Advocates should be sure also to use NLIHC’s Legislative Action Center to call and email their members of Congress about NLIHC’s policy priorities.
We hope you’ll join us in making your voice heard to advance housing justice!
