![]() Deborah VanAmerongen of HUD speaks to participants at a recent forum on HUD's elderly housing programs. |
Deborah VanAmerongen, HUD's NY Multifamily Housing Director, used the opportunity to provide an explanation of the objectives and requirement of the Section 202 program while emphasizing the key issues that an applicant needs to address for their application to rate competitively. This interactive forum included statements from representatives of several faith-based organizations that had recently been awarded HUD grants who shared their experiences with the program so as to assist other potential grantees in their understanding of the process and its realities.
Following Ms. VanAmerongen's presentation, HUD staff met informally with attendees to discuss programs that support and enhance the Section 202 developments, such as the Service Coordinator program and Neighborhood Networks for senior citizens. In the end it can be said that interactive events such as this, coupled with the ready availability of HUD staff to assist in answering questions and providing guidance, foster an increased participation by the faith based community in HUD's programs which in turn benefit the local community.
