The Colorado Department of Local Affairs Division of Housing (DOH), Colorado Housing and Finance Authority (CHFA), and Housing Colorado have added two new events to the series of outreach and engagement forums taking place across Colorado in 2019. 
Participants have the opportunity to hear from DOH, CHFA, and Housing Colorado on policies, programs, and recent housing-related legislation, engage in facilitated discussions about different sectors of the affordable housing continuum, and offer input on regional housing needs and priorities. 

The information collected through stakeholder outreach and engagement forums, together with housing and population data, evidence-based best practices, and economic analyses, will inform the allocations of state funds to affordable housing programs and projects that meet the needs of local communities. Resources distributed at previous outreach and engagement forums in Grand Junction (June 27) and Pueblo 
(July 11), including regional community housing profiles, affordable housing case studies, and DOH's Affordable Housing Guide for Local Officials, are now available on the DOH website (bit.ly/30ZEQpQ).

More than 200 individuals have already participated in outreach and engagement forums in Grand Junction and Pueblo and 300 more are registered to join upcoming conversations in Durango, Bent County, Denver, Fort Collins, and Summit County. 
Your input is essential. If you have not already provided input, stakeholder input is also being collected via a survey (available at bit.ly/2Yom9OW) closing on Oct. 18. 

If you would like more information, please contact CML Legislative and Policy Advocate Meghan Dollar (mdollar@cml.org).
