Our objective is to establish a presence in every state / region by creating a chapter to facilitate idea exchange and expand professional networks. This will lead to improved quality of homes and services for residents of affordable housing, as well as greater opportunities to connect qualified candidates with top companies in the industry. Additionally, women in the industry will receive widespread support from our allies across the country.
Learn

We also focus on promoting professional growth for those already working in the affordable housing industry and introducing careers in affordable housing to college students and residents of affordable housing.
