Heads-up that we've adjusted the time of the welcome/keynote session for this Thursday's Vermont Statewide Housing Conference.

Registration will now run from 8 to 8:45 am, with the welcome/keynote session starting at 8:45.

We've added 15 minutes to the welcome/keynote to try and squeeze in as much time as possible with keynoter HUD Sec. Shaun Donovan.
