SUMMARY:National Rural Housing Conference 2014 - Day 3
DESCRIPTION:The biennial National Rural Housing Conference brings together stakeholders in the field of rural affordable housing from local nonprofits\, federal agencies\, Congress\, state and local governments\, and other industry leaders for two-and-a-half days of training\, discussion\, and networking. The Conference features nearly 40 workshops where participants will learn best practices for housing development\, organizational management\, resource development\, and innovative approaches to housing and community development. The Conference also includes a pre-Conference day\, packed with gatherings for coalitions\, association\, and working groups. \nFor rural nonprofits\, the Conference provides an excellent opportunity to network and improve  connections to federal agencies and national nonprofit organizations. For many of the attendees\, this conference represents their sole opportunity during the year to connect with these important policy makers and experts. \n \nRetool\, Rebuild\, Renew\nThis year’s conference theme is Retool\, Rebuild\, Renew. Although these verbs could describe the construction or rehab of housing\, the theme is not about bricks and mortar. It’s about our movement. The rural housing network has a proud history of accomplishment and has empowered\, improved\, and made lasting impacts across rural America. However\, for a number of years\, we have been in a defensive posture-the support and resources necessary for our network have been threatened. It is past time to shift from a reactive to a proactive posture. It is time go on the offensive and retool our collective talents\, rebuild the innovative spirit that got us where we are\, and renew our passion for the mission that guides us. HAC’s National Rural Housing Conference will help get us back on track to expand the accomplishments of the past. \nBook Your Room Now\nNew to our conference and not sure what to expect? Attended the last conference and can’t remember the name of that one speaker? Review the materials from the 2012 National Rural Housing Conference. \nSubmit a nomination for the Rural Housing Awards.

DESCRIPTION:The biennial National Rural Housing Conference brings together stakeholders in the field of rural affordable housing from local nonprofits\, federal agencies\, Congress\, state and local governments\, and other industry leaders for two-and-a-half days of training\, discussion\, and networking. The Conference features nearly 40 workshops where participants will learn best practices for housing development\, organizational management\, resource development\, and innovative approaches to housing and community development. The Conference also includes a pre-Conference day\, packed with gatherings for coalitions\, association\, and working groups. \nFor rural nonprofits\, the Conference provides an excellent opportunity to network and improve  connections to federal agencies and national nonprofit organizations. For many of the attendees\, this conference represents their sole opportunity during the year to connect with these important policy makers and experts. \n \nRetool\, Rebuild\, Renew\nThis year’s conference theme is Retool\, Rebuild\, Renew. Although these verbs could describe the construction or rehab of housing\, the theme is not about bricks and mortar. It’s about our movement. The rural housing network has a proud history of accomplishment and has empowered\, improved\, and made lasting impacts across rural America. However\, for a number of years\, we have been in a defensive posture-the support and resources necessary for our network have been threatened. It is past time to shift from a reactive to a proactive posture. It is time go on the offensive and retool our collective talents\, rebuild the innovative spirit that got us where we are\, and renew our passion for the mission that guides us. HAC’s National Rural Housing Conference will help get us back on track to expand the accomplishments of the past. \nBook Your Room Now\nNew to our conference and not sure what to expect? Attended the last conference and can’t remember the name of that one speaker? Review the materials from the 2012 National Rural Housing Conference. \nSubmit a nomination for the Rural Housing Awards.
