Updates from Nathanael Shea, Director of Public Policy

Donuts with Your Delegation! 

Over the past few weeks, CDCs across the state have held dozens of meetings with their legislative delegations! You’ve advocated for crucial state funding for programs like RAFT, SBTA, Ch. 206 Homebuyer Counseling, and so much more. You’ve made sure they’re prioritizing the policies that will ensure we can build vibrant communities. And you’ve shown them that CDCs have our sleeves rolled up and are doing the work of making our communities affordable, safe, and healthy places where all can thrive. Congratulations to everyone who held a meeting for taking this crucial advocacy step!

Don’t forget to Save the Date for MACDC’s State House Lobby Day on April 15th! Registration details and other information will be coming out very soon.
