Creating an affordable housing community by developing platforms to enable stakeholders from all sectors to connect, learn promising practices, share current work and engage builders, advocates, officials and planners is essential to the success of the Regional Housing Partnership (RHP). Leading this effort is the RHP Strategy Committee which is made up of representatives from across the region working on housing initiatives.
