The Campaign for Grade-Level Reading (CGLR) (link is external), a long-standing partner of CLPHA’s Housing Is Initiative, is co-convening the 2022 All-America City (AAC) Awards (link is external)with the National Civic League. Every year the awards select a theme. This year, the 2022 AAC Awards are centering the critical role of stable housing by recognizing communities that have committed to improving the prospects for early school success and equitable learning recovery for the hundreds of thousands of children whose families are served by the nation’s public housing agencies and affordable housing organizations.
CLPHA is partnering with CGLR to promote the awards and would love to have CLPHA members’ innovative work showcased through this opportunity. Be on the lookout for information on an upcoming webinar series and featured session during the 2022 Housing Is Summit (link is external) on May 18 and 19.
