In 2017, AHC worked on 13 different development projects to produce nearly 1,800 new, preserved or renovated quality affordable apartments for low-income families, senior citizens, young professionals and hardworking individuals in Virginia, Maryland and Washington, DC.
A coalition of housing experts and advocates created a report with strategies to meet the production goals set out in Arlington’s Affordable Housing Master, which was unanimously adopted in 2015.
Canisius College has named Walter D. Webdale a Distinguished Alumni, the highest honor bestowed upon those who differentiate themselves as leaders in their chosen professions.
In celebration of the holiday season, AHC Inc. continued its annual tradition of hosting Thanksgiving dinners at several of its affordable apartment communities in Arlington. AHC staff teamed up with volunteers to cook more than 30 turkeys, prepare side dishes, and help decorate community spaces for hundreds of residents to enjoy a Thanksgiving feast together.
The process of developing affordable housing is increasingly challenging. Justin Oliver, AHC Board Chair, suggests several ways to help, including making the business case for affordable housing – and how it helps the whole community thrive.
