Executive Director Maura Collins has announced that Vermont Housing Finance Agency (VHFA) has selected Megan Roush (she/her) of Northfield in the new role of Director of Development.

The Vermont Coalition to End Homelessness (VCEH), on behalf of the Balance of State Continuum of Care, is seeking public feedback on its application for special funding from the U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD) to address rural homelessness. 

Increasing mortgage interest rates and home prices have rapidly made it much more difficult for Vermonters to purchase their first homes. About half as many renters can afford to purchase their first home in 2022 compared to 2021, based on VHFA’s recent analysis of sales price and interest rate trends.

Governor Phil Scott has appointed Marie Milord-Ajanma (she/her) of Waterbury to Vermont Housing Finance Agency (VHFA)’s Board of Commissioners.
