All Parks Alliance for Change is a Minnesota-based civic and social organization that serves as the statewide advocacy group for the state’s 180,000 manufactured home park residents. Through education, grassroots organizing, and leadership development, it helps park residents voice their needs and concerns within their communities and in the wider public policy arena, with a focus on safe, affordable, and stable housing. The organization aims to improve quality of life in park neighborhoods and to protect residents’ rights, while pursuing public policy changes relevant to manufactured home communities. Founded in 1980 by park residents in Anoka County, APAC has grown to operate across Minnesota, expanding its reach from the seven-county metro area to a statewide scope, and it has pursued national organizing efforts since 2007. Based in St. Paul, the organization positions itself within the civic and social sectors as a statewide resident advocacy and organizing entity dedicated to preserving this form of affordable housing.
