When COVID-19 struck, NVAHA pivoted from focusing on housing policy to advocating for critical resources for vulnerable residents who lost their jobs, and the sustainability of community-based organizations who serve them.
The Northern Virginia Eviction Prevention & Housing Stability Toolkit was created in June with a regional coalition of public and private sector participants, to shed light on what is being done to stabilize housing conditions for those who are unable to pay rent, and show where gaps in eviction prevention remain.
We are proud of this latest achievement which caps over 15 years of collaboration with local, regional and statewide organizations on housing affordability and advocacy for multi-racial, equitable, inclusive communities. Our partnerships with all of you have been critical to moving our region toward that goal.
Join us for our 2020 Regional Housing Leaders' Awards Ceremony & 15th Anniversary Celebrationas we toast our awardees and celebrate our shared accomplishments. We are pleased to announce that Jeff McKay, Chairman of the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors and Justin Wilson, Mayor of the City of Alexandria will offer welcoming comments to get us started, and Christian Dorsey, Arlington County Board member, will accept the award for the Council of Governments as a member of their Board of Directors.
We won't let the pandemic keep us from this celebration, so we hope to see you on Thursday, September 17 at 5 PM. Register here to recent upcoming information for this free, online event!
