On-Site Service Programs On a Shoestring

1:45-3:15 pm | Gwen Volk|  $95 AHMA Members | $145 Non-Members

Register Online  

Not everyone is lucky enough to have professional service coordinator on staff. Nor can all properties afford to hire an outside service contractor to coordinate their activities. Tax credit properties and bond properties generally come with a requirement for programs to enrich the quality of life of residents but generally do not have budgets that provide much to invest in such things. Take it from someone whose properties won two national awards- largely for their outstanding service programs - without benefit of large budgets or professional service coordination: You too can-do quality programs on a shoestring. BONUS: Participants will receive access to Gwen’s “Best Ideas List” with more than 500 no-cost, low-cost programs and activities proven to be successful by your fellow affordable housing managers nationwide. Updated to include Ideas for Resident Engagement During COVID.
