Our APA-HI Public Issues and Governmental Affairs Committee has been participating in reviewing the draft and now final National APA Equity, Housing and Surface Transportation Policy Guides. After receiving final input and approval from the APA Delegate Assembly on April 14, 2019 at the National Conference in San Francisco, the APA Board of Directors on May 14, 2019 ratified these three new Policy Guides. As a courtesy for our members, this committee has provided a summary and links for each new national policy guide.
