Habitat for Humanity is organizing another spring break trip to Advocacy in Albany this year. You don't have to be a member of Habitat to participate! This program is perfect for those interested in policy studies.

During this event you will learn about:
The highlight of this event is our visit to the New York State Legislative Office Building. During this time participants lobby legislators about the need for affordable housing. Two days of building in Albany follow upon completion of the program.
The cost is $125, a great deal for a week of meeting new people, participating in the legislative process, building, and fun! If this is a program you're interested in, reserve a spot by FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 25th, 2011.
E-mail Kaylee Underkofler at kunderk1@ithaca.edu with questions and to reserve your spot.
