Participants will hear directly from an experienced development consultant and an architect on the descriptions of funding sources and options, how to evaluate the project for eligibility, the importance of how the program affects the design and construction of the building, and the integration of residents with different income levels into the community. Case studies will highlight the variations in the programs. HSW: No
