The National Safe and Healthy Housing Coalition (NSHHC) will be hosting visits with congressional offices on Capitol Hill on May 19 and 20, 2025. These visits offer both educational and networking opportunities for those interested in supporting healthy housing advocacy. Hill visits are being scheduled and coordinated by the NSHHC. Participants can sign up for either virtual visits on May 19, 2025, or in-person on May 20, 2025.
No experience with advocacy or policymaker outreach is required to participate – all are welcome to join in the conversation about how to support healthy housing policy! You may want to participate in this Hill day if you want to share with your elected representatives:
- A personal story about how your home environment affected your health
- How the work you do makes your community healthier
- What healthy housing means where you live
- Why continued funding for healthy housing programs is important for your community
Please note that participation in the Hill meetings does not necessarily include lobbying; if you have an organizational restriction on lobbying, we will ensure that your participation in the Hill meetings is strictly limited to policymaker education.
If you are interested in participating in the Hill visits, please fill out this interest form by March 24, 2025: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/9XJ2PMZ.
