Title: SWCOS - Citizens Planning and Housing Association (CPHA)
Description: CPHA is the place where community leaders and citizens come together, across the usual boundaries and divisions, to make life better at the neighborhood level and at the regional level. CPHA is also building on its long tradition of advocacy for policies that will provide the quality of life. Currently, CPHA has the lead role in advocating for a city-wide inclusionary housing bill and an affordable housing trust fund to insure that the city and its neighborhoods remain diverse. As other examples of field assignments, MACO students assigned to CPHA in the past have organized residents around sanitation, housing and public transit, advocated for funding and enforcement and helpful with research, technical assistance and training.
