Affordable Housing Resident Leader Scholarships
Deadline to apply was June 1, 2010

Housing Colorado, with the support of generous funders, is offering several scholarships (up to $1,000) each to assist organizations wishing to host a few select Resident Leaders at our annual conference, October 12-15 in Vail, Colorado. Resident Leaders are residents of affordable housing and are leaders or emerging leaders in their community.

This program offers up to $1000 which will be used to cover the organization’s proposed plan for resident involvement, including the Conference registration fee. The remaining balance will be paid to the Organization to cover other costs for the Resident Leaders to participate, such as transportation and hotel lodging.

Please direct any questions to the scholarship committee chairs, Elaine Nelson, Wells Fargo Bank, 303-863-6531 or Teresa Bardwell, RCAC, 720-234-9565.

“It [Conference] was valuable to me because I was able to meet key individuals and real power-house executives in the housing and financial industry. As a resident myself, I like to have the opportunity to attend programs which identify with resident issues, community building and volunteering programs.” - Fran E., Neighbor To Neighbor Resident Leader – Fort Collins and surrounding communities.”

“I felt the Housing Colorado NOW! Conference elicited an opportunity for residents of affordable housing, employees working with programming for affordable housing and Senators providing policy on affordable housing were given a place to speak to one another. We learned together about the importance of affordable housing, and respecting and acknowledging one another’s position and role with affordable housing. Putting face and name to an issue we can gain clarity on what policies can provide or take away from people, businesses and our community.” - Jacqueline V., Family Advocate for Warren Village
