elcome to Colorado NAHRO’s 2016 Annual Maintenance and Management Conference!
The theme this year is Partnering for Progress. In honor of this year’s theme, I hope you will
take this opportunity to meet new people, create new relationships and learn more about
Colorado NAHRO. I invite you to talk to a Board Member and learn how you can become involved
in making Colorado NAHRO stronger and more diverse. With all the challenges facing the affordable
housing and community development industry, and a State with 168,000 cost burdened families, it is
more important than ever we come together with one powerful voice to advocate for those we house
and the thousands waiting to be housed. As your President, it is my mission to create opportunities for
all agencies, big or small, to be instrumental in carrying forward the mission of Colorado NAHRO.
Earlier this year the Board completed strategic planning for the next two years with a plan that
will strengthen Colorado NAHRO and fulfill the expectations of our member agencies. The plan
includes creating a robust public awareness campaign, expanding the number and geographic diversity
of Colorado NAHRO members, identifying and marketing educational opportunities for our members
and creating a strong strategy for legislative advocacy at the state and national level. I hope you will
join us in keeping affordable housing and community development in the forefront for policy makers
and community leaders. With vacancy rates at historical lows and rents at all-time highs we know the
importance of the work we do. We must continue to communicate our message to all Coloradans and
the nation.
Thank you to the Eagle County Housing and Development Authority and the Vail community for
hosting us. I hope you find time to enjoy all of the wonderful outdoor opportunities in the White River
National Forrest from mountain biking to viewing amazing wildlife. Please find the time to visit local
restaurants and shops and take in the unique flavor of Vail.
Our dedicated conference planning committee has worked diligently to create a conference that
will be fun, educational and thought provoking. I hope you enjoy the sessions and plan to join us at the
first ever Colorado NAHRO Prom with music from Montage. Kick up your heels and enjoy the evening
with your Colorado NAHRO family.

As organizations become more

from output to outcome reporting
is growing more important.
Understanding the true impact
that Resident Services has on
the residents helps to guide
programming and grant funding
opportunities, as well as to drive
buy-in from everyone from staff,
the board of commissioners to
the public. For Boulder Housing
Partners, incorporating outcome
reporting into Yardi made sense
both financially and logistically, but
custom programming an outcome
tracking tool has been a challenge
and a great learning experience.
