Legislative advocacy is at the heart of what our Realtor® organizations do.
This year, PAR will be offering Public Policy Regional Trainings throughout the state to make it easier for members to attend. The training sessions, offered in seven locations, are free and open to any PAR member. Space is limited and you’ll have to pre-register!
This is a change from PAR’s previous Public Policy Seminar held in Harrisburg. A member task force saw the need to expand the training so more members have the opportunity to learn about the legislative advocacy efforts of PAR, in coordination with local associations, and how they can be part of these efforts.
The training is designed to help you advocate for the real estate industry and your clients. As Realtors®, we represent homeowners and private property rights – at the local, state and national level. Realtors® know the value of homeownership, and the importance of commercial investment as well, and work to help elected officials understand the important role a vital real estate market plays in the quality of life in our communities and for the families that live there.
The training sessions run from 2 to 5 p.m. (registration opens at 1:30 p.m.) and the agenda includes public policy issues, political advocacy and local government affairs efforts.

- Thursday, Feb. 22 – Best Western Premiere Central Hotel, Harrisburg
- Thursday, March 1 – Toftrees, State College
