VUAA is a nonprofit that advocates for housing, transit and safe streets across the Phoenix metro. We are a 501(c)(4), so we can lobby and work directly on policy at city hall.

Urban Phoenix Project is our sister organization. It is a 501(c)(3) that focuses on education and research in the City of Phoenix. VUAA covers the whole metro and does advocacy.

The Tipsheet is a free weekly email. It lists the meetings and agenda items we are watching across the Valley, so you know when to show up or send a comment. Signing up also adds you to Urban Phoenix Project's monthly newsletter.

Most Valley cities let you comment online or speak in person. Each meeting's agenda, linked from our meeting tracker, explains how to sign up to speak or send a written comment.

No. VUAA is a 501(c)(4), so gifts to VUAA are not tax deductible. Gifts to Urban Phoenix Project, a 501(c)(3), may be.
