Natalie Green was part of the "CONNECTING HOUSING PARTNERS" panel, where she discussed the Affordable Housing Act. Her presentation focused on collaboration between municipalities and housing organizations to create both single-family and multifamily housing options.

Both Green and Corran expressed their commitment to enhancing affordable housing opportunities and supporting community development.
