MHP is pleased to host three regional housing trust roundtables and a day-long trust conference this fall.
The regional trust roundtables are for existing trustees on an Affordable Housing Trust board, staff that support trusts and communities exploring the creation of an affordable housing trust in the region. Roundtables begin with a tour of an existing or future site of an affordable housing development. These events are free and include a light dinner. RSVP to any of these events by email Shelly Goehring at sgoehring@mhp.net.
