Triad Housing Hangout: Community Conversations on Regional Housing Needs

Join us for our dynamic monthly series connecting housing professionals, advocates, developers, and community partners across the Piedmont Triad!

October Session: Oct 8, 12–1 PM | Sparq Coworking Space, Innovation Quarter, Winston-Salem

In October, the Triad Housing Hangout will host Michael Blair, Director of Community Development at the Piedmont Triad Regional Council (PTRC). Through Community Development the PTRC hosts initiatives like the Regional Housing Summit and provides central information and services for weatherization, repair, rental assistance, and other housing resources across the Triad; program coverage varies by county across the 12-county region (and select adjacent counties for certain programs). Michael will relay information on these programs as well as efforts to address the housing deficit across the region.
