RHCDA will be offering a 12-hour group training program on Affordable For-Sale Housing Development Finance at Harris Stowe State University next month. The group training will be held in 4-hour modules, from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., over the course of three days, September 30th, October 1st, and October 2nd. Attendance for all three days will be important to have a comprehensive understanding and working knowledge of affordable for-sale housing development. The program will be available to community-based development organizations in the St. Louis/Eastern Missouri region.
The course will examine the skills required to succeed in developing single-family housing that is affordable for low and moderate-income families.
