Mary Powell, President and Chief Executive Officer of Green Mountain Power Corp., wrote a piece titled "Affordable housing, conservation vital" in the opinion section of today's Burlington Free Press.
She points out the importance of funding the Vermont Housing & Conservation Board (VHCB), and writes about the economic benefits of building affordable housing.
The National Council of State Housing Agencies (NCSHA), of which VHFA is a member, is a national, nonprofit organization created by the nation's state Housing Finance Agencies (HFAs) to advance through advocacy and education their efforts to provide affordable housing.

VHFA has an immediate opening for its General Counsel position.
General Counsel directs and administers all legal matters for the Agency.
