  NHC and Center for Housing Policy National Symposium

  Denver Marriott City Center

  Register today and plan to join colleagues from around the country for Partners in Innovation: Including Affordable and Workforce Housing within Transit-Oriented Development. This one-day symposium will take place September 27, 2010 in Denver, Co.

  The goal of the symposium is to examine the challenges and opportunities for developing and sustaining Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) that includes housing opportunities affordable to working families and families with low- and moderate-incomes. The symposium will be a comprehensive, highly interactive educational experience that will include opportunities for peer-to-peer learning, panel discussions, training workshops, plenary sessions and a networking reception.

  Participation in this event will provide an opportunity to support the development of stronger state and local policies that support more equitable TOD and benefit working families and others that cannot afford market-rate housing.

  Partners in Innovation will be designed to be useful to a wide range of state and local stakeholders interested in equitable TOD. We expect this symposium to attract 250 participants including elected and appointed officials, planners, developers, housing and transportation practitioners, smart growth advocates and many others.

  You wont want to miss this opportunity to connect with peers, learn from experts, and share your story in a dynamic learning environment!

  National CAPACD 11th Annual Convention

  Liaison Hotel on Capital Hill

  National CAPACD’s annual convention brings together more than 200 staff and members from AAPI-serving organizations across the country. Originally in DC, since 2004, we have held the convention in cities across the country to make the event more accessible to low-income communities and community-based organizations. Each year, the convention closes with a National AAPI Town Hall Meeting, where parents, youth and other community members provide testimony to advocate for social and economic policy changes to improve their lives and neighborhoods—and shape our national advocacy agenda.

  We are excited to celebrate our 11th Annual Convention this year in Washington, DC! Please join us in September 26-29, 2010.

  Stay tuned for updates!
