Join us for the 2019 NYS Conference in Binghamton, NY, Sept 19-21. Not only is “Cost of Home” the theme of HFHI’s first national advocacy campaign, it’s also the theme of our 2019 Habitat NYS Conference. It’s a concept that applies to everything we do; from volunteer management, operational strategies, and fund development, to homeowner recruitment, human resources, and ReStore operations. Efficiently managing our operations helps us better serve our communities, and this is your opportunity to connect with your peers and attend trainings and workshops to deepen your impact. Staff, volunteers, and board members are encouraged to attend!
