The AIA Housing and Community Development Knowledge Community (HCD) is a network of architects and allied stakeholders that promotes equity in housing, excellence in residential design, and sustainable, vibrant communities for all, through education, research, awards, and advocacy.
AIA Seattle believes that housing is a human right. Housing all citizens with dignity is a foundational responsibility of our society, and one in which architects are natural and valuable partners. As Seattle grows and housing pressures mount, the urgency of solving our housing crisis increases. AIA Seattle has developed a multi-pronged approach to housing advocacy across multiple platforms that includes member engagement, legislative and policy work, and public outreach. This webinar will explore how AIA Seattle has worked to identify the policies where architects can make the most impact and how the chapter has built a cohesive campaign around housing policy changes.
