DC Multifamily Council Briefing

Tuesday, September 26, 2023

The John Wilson Building, Room 104

1350 Pennsylvania Avenue Northwest Washington, DC 20004-3003 United States

Category: Advocacy

We are excited to offer this unique opportunity for members to engage with DC Councilmembers and their staffs. Members will have a forum to share their perspectives on challenges facing multifamily rental housing providers within a welcoming and unintimidating group setting. These meetings will form the bedrock of new relationships and strengthen existing ones with the elected officials representing your communities, making a significant difference in AOBA’s advocacy efforts on behalf of the industry.

Each meeting will consist of 5-6 members, with slots allotted on a first come first serve basis. On the registration page, members can choose which meetings to attend. Councilmembers will join us on a rotating schedule, with breakfast provided for the morning meetings and lunch for the afternoon meetings.
