The Virginia Housing Alliance (VHA) is a statewide nonprofit organization dedicated to expanding access to safe, affordable housing and ending homelessness across the Commonwealth. Through advocacy, education, and collaboration, VHA works to strengthen Virginia’s housing and homelessness response system and advance solutions that support housing stability for all. 

Housing Credit Conference (HCC) focuses on the development and financing of affordable housing. Grounded in the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program, it convenes developers, investors, policymakers, and industry leaders to explore the tools, policies, and partnerships that make housing possible across Virginia.

Applications for the popular Cranewatch session are now open! This fast-paced session, held during the lunch hour, highlights affordable housing developments across Virginia, both recently completed and under construction, and offers a great opportunity to share your work with developers, lenders, and housing leaders from across the Commonwealth.
