According to DETCOG Regional Housing Director Ethel Bluitt, “Our region has a shortage of affordable housing. We are looking for landlords and property owners to partner with us in offering more affordable housing options for our Veterans and other clients throughout DETCOG service area.” Through this workshop, we hope to educate landlords about the benefits of renting to our HUD-VASH and a HUD Rental Assistance tenant. Additionally, we hope to give property owners a better understanding of program requirements.”
