Government Affairs Committee (GAC) Meeting

Description

The Government Affairs Committee (GAC) is the advocacy committee of the Parker Chamber of Commerce.  We meet monthly to discuss issues at the local, county, and state levels that impact business.

We typically have guest speakers from 9:00 - 9:45am.  Chamber members are welcome to attend the guest speaker portion of GAC meetings.

This month, we will focus on "Workforce Housing in Parker & Douglas County."  Our guest speaker will be Mari Ciano, Executive Director of the Douglas County Housing Partnership.

Maria Ciano serves as the Executive Director of the Douglas County Housing Partnership (DCHP), a multi-jurisdictional housing authority dedicated to improving housing affordability in Douglas County through strategic partnerships with private developers and local governments. A US Navy veteran and the NAHRO Person of the Year for 2024, Maria leads initiatives that bridge planning, policy, and community needs, including spearheading efforts that earned a 2025 DRCOG Metro Vision Award for regional collaboration, aimed at expanding programs that address the full spectrum of workforce and attainable housing needs.
