Application: Community Voices Academy
The Coalition for Nonprofit Housing and Economic Development's (CNHED) is excited to recruit it's third cohort of our premier advocacy and policy engagement training program for D.C. residents -- The Community Voices Academy.

The Community Voices Academy is designed to structurally and systematically uplift the voices and perspectives of Black and Brown under-resourced District residents with lived experiences surrounding affordable housing, supportive services, and/or workforce development trainings and programs. 

Participants in the Community Voices Academy will receive in-person training through a comprehensive curriculum touching on advocacy, community engagement, community leadership, and local public policy. Participants will also have the opportunity to engage directly with local leaders and policymakers by testifying at budget hearings and participating in other channels of policy engagement, including advocacy events, rallies, and more!

The Community Voices Academy is a 10-month commitment spanning from September to June. We are currently soliciting applications from interested residents and will on-board the new members to start in September. Selected participants will be paid for their time -- $200 monthly with a $500 end-of-service award at the completion of their term. 

Before applying, please make sure to review the eligibility requirements and group expectations on our website at www.cnhed.org/cva to make sure the Academy is the right fit for you.

We look forward to working with you! If you have any questions, please contact Lamar Richards at lrichards@cnhed.org
