The New England Affordable Housing Management Association was formed in 1989 to facilitate communication between management agents and local HUD and state housing finance agencies. Monthly membership meetings include a period devoted to training and education on current regulatory topics as well as current housing updates provided by agency representatives. Members have an on-going opportunity to attend NEAHMA sponsored educational sessions relevant to affordable housing. All training and educational workshops qualify for credits toward the NAHP® designation. NEAHMA is a member of the National Affordable Housing Management Association. Founded in 1990, NAHMA is the nation’s largest association for managers and owners of privately owned, government-assisted housing. NAHMA advocates for an adequate supply of multifamily, residential affordable housing by bringing nationwide attention to the necessity of preserving decent, safe and sanitary housing and building a solid partnership with HUD, Congress and other concerned participants. NEAHMA’s membership consists of owners and management agents who represent over 50,000 units of affordable housing throughout New England complimented by a strong contingent of associate vendor members. As an organization representing affordable housing professionals, NEAHMA addresses housing issues at the national, state and local level. HUD and housing finance agencies actively support NEAHMA as a means to ensure Communities of Quality throughout New England.
