BRAC Chapter Update

Print Print this Article | Send to Colleague

BRAC began their 4th annual Food Drive for the local Blue Ridge Area Food Bank. We have 21 properties participating this year. Last year, as an organization we donated 1,122 lbs of food and the winner of the 2014 Food Drive Award went to The Woodlands of Charlottesville, who collected 214 lbs of food. We hope we can beat that record this year! 

BRAC just completed their 2015 NALP course with 7 students. Good luck to all of our students on their exams!

On May 6th, we hosted an Affordable Housing Panel at Eagle's Landing Clubhouse. This meeting was sponsored by Ferguson Enterprises. Our panelists included:
Connie Dunn – Executive Director, Charlottesville Redevelopment & Housing Authority

David Hawkins – Housing Navigator, Haven Housing

Kaki Dimock – Executive Director, Thomas Jefferson Area Coalition for the Homeless

Kathy McHugh, Housing Development Specialist, City of Charlottesville

Melissa Celii Thackston, Grants Coordinator, City of Charlottesville

Ron White – Chief of Housing, County of Albemarle Office of Housing

Moderator: Trey Steigman – Vice President, Development, Management Services Corporation

This was a great opportunity to open lines of communication and build relationships with these local organizations as well as address concerns with the local programs.
