NCAF’s Annual Washington Conference + Community Action Fly-In Day

Almost as long as NCAF has been around (since 1981) – NCAF has convened local Community Action Agencies and their state and federal partners in Washington, DC to dive into policy topics key to Community Action as well as to update as many Members of Congress as possible on Community Action in their district.
