Organised by Urban Homeworks, Inc.Urban Homeworks relies heavily on the support of our Table Hosts to make PTH successful, and this year is no different! We invite you to become a Virtual Table Host and invite your networks to be a part of the online event.
We have come to terms with the vastly different cirumstances that this year has brought us. After careful consideration, Urban Homeworks has decided to move this year's Perpetuate the Hope Affordable Housing Symposium to be held completely online. We had high hopes of celebrating our 25th anniversary with all of you in-person, but we recognize that holding a gathering of this size would put our community at greater risk.
We are overwhelmed with gratitude at the ways our Urban Homeworks family has shown up for us this year, and we know PTH will be no different. Help us honor 25 years of building hope by joining our Virtual Symposium!
Wednesday, August 12 Main Program (1 hour)
Thursday, August 13 Equity and Engagement Breakout Session (1 hour)
Friday, August 14 Closing Breakout Session (1 hour)
