Our Members Drive Change

During legislative session, our weekly legislative update will give you an insider's perspective from the halls of the state capitol on how our budget and policy priorities are faring. 
 
We share resources and reports from national partners, and we're here year-round to answer your policy and advocacy questions and keep you updated on policy developments. 

Each summer, our members get a first look at the coming year's legislative priorities and an opportunity to help set the Housing Alliance's agenda during our Statewide Listening Tour. 

We provide free Continuing Education Units (CEUs) for licensed social workers at select Equity, Racial Justice, and Culture Lunch & Learn action shops. (If you work for an organization or agency that belongs to the Housing Alliance, this benefit applies to you.) 
 
Participate in regular webinars, member calls, and live-streamed panel discussions to learn the latest on housing and homelessness issues. Topics range from effective advocacy to specific programs and funding. We dive deep into equity to expand each other's understanding of how the issues and solutions impact people of color, people with disabilities, LGBTQI+ people, and other communities who disproportionately experience housing instability.

Our action alerts distill the latest developments into clear, effective messages to lawmakers so you can advocate with confidence and be a part of impacting policy change or securing funding for affordable homes. 
 
Whether it's engaging your staff, board, or residents, we can provide additional tools and support to help you make a difference. Member organizations can request legislative briefings and advocacy trainings from our knowledgeable staff any time of year. 
 
Participate in Housing and Homelessness Advocacy Day in Olympia, and join us for our Annual Member Meeting at the end of the year to celebrate our progress and get ready for the next legislative session.
