Meeting/Event Information

Dear Colleagues: 

With the continued threat of COVID looming, AHIC has had to make the tough decision to cancel our Fall Affordable Housing Summit in Salt Lake City.   Travel by plane and large events just don’t seem feasible for any of us for 2020.

Instead, we’ll be taking a page from our popular Spring Webinar series to offer a similar virtual event to you and the industry in October.  Here’s the lowdown.

What:  We’re planning 6 panels, plus three events:  an Open Forum, a Book Club, and a Networking Cocktail Party

When:  Panels will be held Tuesday – Thursday, October 20-22 and October 27-29, from noon – 1:30 pm E; the events will be scheduled for those weeks too, stay tuned. 

Tell Me More!  Your Program Committee is working hard to bring you compelling insights from experts and concrete tools to help you do your job better.  Here’s our line-up.

• A deep dive into operating subsidies
• The outlook for the 2020 election– November 3^rd will be right around the corner
• Insights from developers on how they are continuing to respond to the pandemic and the recession – what is the impact on construction, lease-up, operations, and new projects?
• An exploration of how the affordable housing industry has advanced, or hindered, social justice and equity and ways we can all do better
• Best practices from state allocating agency leaders responding to the crisis
• How investors are changing their day to day underwriting and asset management practices

Can I Afford It?  Our free Spring webinar series had more than 300 participants, including close to 90 investors from our member companies engaging with AHIC for the first time.   We want to make sure that no one gets shut out because of budget constraints, so we are inaugurating a free option for registration.  Having the broadest audience possible is our goal in this unprecedented time.  Sponsorships opportunities will also be available for those members who would like to support this open access approach. 

Mark Your Calendars.  Be Well.  Stay Safe.
