Join NAPC, May 14th for their next webinar, Making the Case: Economic Impact Studies for Historic Preservation.

Historic preservation brings real economic benefits to communities, but those impacts aren't always easy to communicate. Katlyn Cotton and Alyssa Frystak, of PlaceEconomics, will explore how Economic Impact Studies (EIS) can help quantify that value, highlighting things like jobs, tax revenue, tourism, and neighborhood investment and how communities are putting this information to use. Designed for preservation staff, commissioners, planners, and allied professionals, this webinar will share practical insights and examples to help make the case for preservation at the local level.
