Commissioners have the unique ability to advocate for and to be effective spokespersons for programs, policies and resources that are necessary to address local housing and community development needs in their respective communities.

Committee members support a wide range of meaningful advocacy opportunities and encourage their colleagues to make a case for viable and sustainable communities to the general public, governmental agencies, elected representatives at all levels of government and the media.

The Professional Development Committee focuses on areas of career identification and advancement, provides guidance to MARC NAHRO leadership on training and education products and services, and seeks to enhance the professionalism of members and housing and community development practitioners generally.
