The New England Housing Network Federal Forum will take place on Friday, December 16 from 9:30am to 12pm at the Federal Reserve bank of Boston, 600 Atlantic Avenue. Breakfast and Registration begin at 9am. What will the next Administration and Congress do about the unmet need for affordable housing in our country? At this forum, we’ll hear from national experts about what they predict will happen, and we’ll hear reactions from New England speakers about what the impact will be on our states. We’ll also consider what we can do proactively to encourage a robust federal affordable housing agenda as we begin 2017. National speakers will include:
Chris Estes, President and CEO, National Housing Conference
Benson “Buzz” Roberts, President and CEO, National Association of Affordable Housing Lenders
Barbara Sard, Vice President for Housing Policy, Center on Budget and Policy Priorities
Diane Yentel, President and CEO, National Low Income Housing Coalition
National speakers will be joined by a panel of speakers from the New England states. Sponsorship opportunities are available. contact Karen Wiener at kwiener@chapa.org. For more information about the conference, contact CHAPA at 617-742-0820.
