September 2026 Newsletter |
From the Executive Director |
|
|
This year, more than 360 housing professionals, advocates, policymakers, developers, community leaders, and partners from across Nevada and beyond, came together around a shared goal: strengthening Nevada’s housing ecosystem.
Over two energizing and collaborative days, we explored what it will take to make housing more Equitable, Permanently Affordable, Action-Oriented, Innovative, and Solution-focused. Most importantly, we examined how to transform these ideas into meaningful action in the communities we serve. |
