Grassroots Advocacy Network

APA's advocacy network is organized based on APA's state chapters. Legislative liaisons in each chapter coordinate member legislative advocacy on both federal and state priorities. If you are interested in federal or state legislation pertaining to your state, contact your legislative liaison or other state's legislative liaisons through this network. APA policy staff uses the network to keep APA's chapters up to date on federal legislation important to planners. When action is needed to promote or to stop a particular bill, an alert is sent through the network asking members to contact their federal or state legislators.
