Workshops will take place on Zoom in June and July
Each year, Washington State Department of Commerce’s Multifamily Housing Unit (MHU) awards funding to affordable housing developers to expand Washington’s supply of affordable housing. A vital component of the awards process is our Pre-Application Workshops, which help new and returning developers learn about the responsibilities and processes necessary to implement state funds. Workshops are on Zoom.
During Pre-Application Workshops:
- Commerce discusses the availability of funding, timeline of the application review process, and application scoring
- Applicants can ask questions and provide feedback about the process and application
Housing providers who have never received Commerce awards are welcome to attend!
