APA Advocacy

APA is committed to providing members with an array of convenient and useful resources to help them carry the planning message to Congress and state legislatures, starting with an advocacy network based on APA's state chapters. Legislative liaisons in each chapter can help coordinate members' legislative advocacy for both federal and state priorities.
