The Housing Solutions Breakfast brings together employers, developers, advocacy groups, legislators, municipal officials, and more to share their perspectives and discuss ongoing and proposed measures to address the issue. Co-hosted by Vital Communities and Twin Pines Housing and sponsored by Mascoma Bank, New Hampshire Housing, and Vermont Housing Finance Agency.

Registration is requested as seats are limited. Register by May 17!
