Can you tell me more about the National Alliance of Preservation Commissions (NAPC)?
In 1983, NAPC was formed to provide a forum for commissions to discuss mutual challenges and to serve as the national voice representing the particular needs of local preservation commissions. NAPC’s mission is “helping to build strong local preservation programs and leaders through education, training, and advocacy.”
As a nonprofit, NAPC provides technical support and manages an information network to help local commissions accomplish their preservation objectives. Our established education and training programs, including our biennial FORUM conference and Commission Assistance and Mentoring Program (CAMP®), have provided essential training to thousands of commission members and staff around the country. NAPC also serves as an advocate at the federal, state and local levels of government to promote policies and programs that support preservation commission efforts, thanks in part to collaboration with our partner organizations in Washington, D.C.
