2022 statewide outreach and engagement forums

CHFA, Housing Colorado, and the Colorado Department of Local Affairs Division of Housing (DOH) are pleased to host the 2022 Statewide Outreach and Engagement Forum series this summer. Participants will hear from each organization on policies, programs, and recent housing-related legislation. Additionally, through facilitated discussions, participants will provide perspective and opinions on how existing programs are working, where additional support could be most useful and effective, and the resource, research, and technical assistance needs of their communities.
Events have been held in Colorado’s mountain resort and Denver metro regions, and the remaining four events will occur in Grand Junction (July 19th), Greeley (July 26th), Durango (August 2nd), and Colorado Springs (August 9th).
