The Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston (FHLBB) is inviting the Vermont affordable housing community to attend an upcoming listening session for its Affordable Housing Program (AHP). The program awards approximately $20.7 million in grants and low-interest loans through member institutions to organizations promoting homeownership and rental housing opportunities for low income households. Among the recent Vermont projects that have received funding through this program are Lake Paran, an affordable rental housing development in Shaftsbury, Vermont, which began construction this past October.
FHLBB is seeking input on Vermont community housing needs, the AHP awards process and how the program can better promote economic development, community
revitalization, health and climate resiliency.
The working group session and luncheon will be held on February 18, 2020 from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m at Capitol Plaza, 100 State Street, Montpelier, VT. Registration via FHLBB's website is required. Space is limited to 50 attendees.
