The parking policies we adopt today will shape housing for the next 50 years. How can we allocate this resource while prioritizing housing to create sustainable, thriving communities for the future we all want and deserve in Massachusetts? 

Join CHAPA for our next forum, Parallel Universe: How Improving Parking Policy Can Meet Our Housing Needs, on Sept. 22, 2026, in Boston to hear from experts in the field about the parking policies of tomorrow. At this interactive forum, you’ll hear from a range of experts about their experience navigating the housing vs. parking trade-off and discuss potential solutions we can utilize across the Commonwealth.
