NAA Update from Lisa Taylor, NAA Region IV Vice President (Mar 2024)

NAA Update from Lisa Taylor
Region IV Vice President

We are a couple weeks away from NAA Advocate; NAA’s annual advocacy conference in Washington, D.C. on March 12 - 15. As the new Congress settles into Capitol Hill, it’s a prime opportunity to meet with your representatives. Unprecedented regulatory activity and record attention on rental housing policy at all levels of government have impacted us all, it’s more important than ever to make sure that your voice is heard. Registration for this event is free. Join your peers and speak to your Congressional representatives about the following critical legislation.

• Improving the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher program to attract and better serve private sector rental housing providers;
• Incentivizing local governments to lower barriers to development and increase the supply of rental housing; and
• Ending the CARES Act 30-day notice-to-vacate requirement for federally-backed and federally-assisted rental properties.

NAA’s Monthly Advocacy & Legal Updates is an NAA member and affiliate exclusive web series for partners yearning to uncover industry legal news and policy changes, sometimes straight from D.C. The call is the 3rd Wednesday of each month at 3:30PM. If you'd like to register, please reach out to Nicole Upano at NAA.
 
NAA is also accepting nominations for their NAA Top Employer Awards. Nominations are due by March 1.  Nomination Guide here for Suppliers and Management Companies.  The winners will be announced in May of this year.
 
Registration for Apartmentalize 2024  is now open and “Feel the LOVE”! Apartmentalize will be in Philadelphia, June 19 – 2. Check with your local affiliate to see if they have discounted registrations.
