Making Policymakers Pay Attention to PN-3 Housing and Homelessness
August 04, 2026
Elections create a key moment to elevate the opportunities and challenges in solving housing and homelessness for families with very young children. Policymakers at every level shape state and local priorities, budgets, and policies that affect babies and toddlers and the systems that support them. This webinar will help organizations engage strategically during the campaign cycle while staying within the boundaries of nonpartisan, 501(c)(3) issue-focused advocacy. Attendees will leave with timely and actionable information to help policymakers pay attention to PN3 housing and homelessness.
