Our Mission
To promote the development and preservation of affordable housing for all Nevadans through collaboration, education, and advocacy.
Join us as we celebrate National Affordable Housing Month with a discussion focused on the broader landscape of housing affordability in Nevada. This cross-sector conversation will explore how affordable housing is deeply interconnected with other critical systems including transit, workforce development, healthcare, education, and small business.
We will hear from Minjia Yan of Millennium Commercial Properties who will recap the redevelopment strategy of Chinatown in Las Vegas and highlight the close intersection of housing affordability with transit and small business development. JD Klippenstein from Reno Housing Authority will discuss the role of healthcare in housing as it relates to supportive housing and working with Managed Care Organizations (MCOs). Eric Novak of Praxis Consulting Group LLC will provide an overview of various funding sources along with strategies for place-based housing, an initiative focused on improving the quality of life and access to opportunities for those living in affordable housing communities.
The session will be moderated by Rae Lathrop from Desert Southwest Conference of the United Methodist Church and is ideal for anyone invested in the future of Nevada’s housing affordability.
