Catalysts for Local Control – Mission Statement

Who are we? A statewide organization of current and former elected officials, community leaders, and constituents.

What is our mission? To educate, engage, and empower constituents to participate in local, regional and state housing policy decisions.

What are our goals? To support legislative process and policy that:
