CAVE is a professional development opportunity for resident services staff and others who provide direct service in the affordable housing industry to learn about affordable housing advocacy and policy with the goal to engage resident communities in advocacy.
CAVE provides comprehensive voter engagement and advocacy training support. Through CAVE, participants gain strategies for how to create a culture and practice of advocacy within their affordable housing communities, empowering residents to participate in elections and policy outcomes that directly impact their lives.
The CAVE training is offered several times a year to all resident services staff of NPH member organizations, and provides:
- Knowledge of the history of affordable housing organizing in the Bay Area and housing policy topics
- Digital organizing skills
- Leadership and community engagement strategies
- Tools to engage your residents in advocacy, voting, and other activities geared toward housing and racial justice
CAVE has come a long way. View our progress on our colorful CAVE timeline.
