ADVOCACY REPORTS

The AIA|LA Advocacy Reports serve as an idea-exchange and clearinghouse to empower the architecture profession.

On an as-needed and frequent basis, we will issue Calls-to-Action to leverage the expertise and leadership of Architects and Designers. We will also post editorials, testimonials, and additional deep-intelligence on the ever-shifting landscape of policies, regulations and cultural trends that are impacting the built and natural environment of Los Angeles.
