We wanted to give a big thank you to those who helped to create a successful and thought provoking Regional Affordable Housing Forum in the Southeast Region of Minnesota.
The Southeast Regional Affordable Housing Forum was joined by nearly 200 partners where we virtually connected for education, discussion, and networking. Opening Remarks were provided by Commissioner Jennifer Ho, Minnesota Housing & Warren Hanson, President, Greater Minnesota Housing Fund (GMHF). Major highlights included panels and presentations on:
1. Setting the Stage: Racial Equity and the Housing Needs of our Diverse Communities
2. Innovative Housing Strategies and Model Projects, Lessons from the Field
3. Breakout Sessions on Multi-family Workforce Housing Production, Expanding Home Ownership, Addressing Racial Disparities, Senior Housing, Supportive Housing, NOAH Housing Preservation, Small Landlord Capacity Building, Pandemic Recovery
4. State Legislative and Federal Housing Policy Updates
5. Funding Resources Available from Minnesota Housing, Greater Minnesota Housing Fund, and Minnesota Housing Partnership
6. Q&A Session with Program Staff from Funder Agencies
