The Virginia Governor’s Housing Conference (VAGHC) connects Virginia’s affordable housing providers with funders, lenders, realtors, nonprofits, public officials and resources to improve housing in Virginia’s communities. The conference provides stimulating and thought-provoking information and educational sessions led by experts in housing, finance and development.
Each year, one of the conference's highlights is the VAGHC Housing Awards Luncheon, which recognizes innovative, effective efforts that address our housing needs. All awards are presented at the conference during the luncheon on Thursday, Nov. 14. There are five award categories:
- Best Multifamily/Rental Housing Development, which recognizes multifamily/rental housing developments that prioritize innovation while meeting the needs of its community,
-
Best Homeownership Development, which recognizes exceptional projects that provide affordable homeownership opportunities,
-
Best Housing Program or Service, which recognizes housing programs or services that use creative efforts to aid citizens in meeting their housing needs,
-

-
Housing Leadership Award, which recognizes an individual who demonstrates remarkable dedication to and progress for housing in Virginia.
