What is NAHRO?
The purpose of the National Association of Housing and Redevelopment Officials
(NAHRO) is to be the leading community and housing development advocate
for the provision of adequate and affordable housing and strong, viable
communities for all Americans, particularly those with low to moderate
incomes, and to enhance the professional development and effectiveness
of NAHRO's members.
Mission
The mission of the Wyoming Chapter of NAHRO is to raise the awareness
of the need for safe, accessible and affordable housing and to strengthen
our communities for the citizens of Wyoming.
Networking
Wyoming NAHRO members have access to a wide variety of individuals
with specialized and successful skills. Members find it helpful to
know others who have experienced similar community and housing development
challenges.
Professional Development
The NAHRO Wyoming Chapter sponsors an annual conference and technical training
designed to help housing professionals and partners acquire the practical
skills needed for today's community and housing development work environment.
Advocacy
Wyoming NAHRO is committed to representing the interests of its members
at the state, regional and national level, with HUD and other public
interest groups. Each year, the Board of Directors develops a Legislative
Agenda based on input from members. The Agenda is distributed to all members
for use at the local and state level. It is also presented to Congressional
Representatives in Washington DC at the NAHRO Legislative
Conference in March.
Information
The NAHRO Wyoming Chapter provides a listserv with vital housing and
community development information. Members are kept informed of current
issues, job openings, and other announcements. The listserv also provides
a forum for peer sharing.
