Instructor:

Louise Elving, Viva Consulting

Duration:

2 hours

Description

This two-hour workshop is intended for board members who want an overview of the issues that boards typically address when their organizations develop affordable housing. These issues include creating your organization’s vision for these projects: who do you want to serve, where, and with what types of housing, and understanding the roles and responsibilities of boards, including their fiduciary responsibilities and how these differ from those of staff.

In this webinar, Louise Elving will address the variety of rewards organizations may pursue beyond creating the housing itself, such as financial return to your organization. Conversely, what risks may you encounter, from financial exposure to opportunity cost? In addition, the webinar will give you an overview of the wide range of public requirements involved in affordable housing development, identifying some key issues you may need to consider as board members (for example, balancing wealth-building and long-term affordability in homeownership projects).

If you would like to send 5 or more people for a discounted rate, please contact Victor Nascimento (victorn@macdc.org), our Leadership Development Program Manager.
