Dear Mr. Egan:

It is my pleasure to submit to you the National Neighborhood Housing Network’s recommendations to the Millennial Housing Commission.

As you and I discussed during our meeting in March when I was in town to testify before the House, NNHN is a network of NeighborWorks® Organizations nationwide that work to improve housing for low- to moderate-income Americans. Our organizations use funding from the Neighborhood Reinvestment Corporation to leverage private dollars in order to create new homeowners, revitalize distressed communities, and build single family and multi-family housing.

We appreciate the opportunity to contribute to the work of the Commission through our recommendations. As the Commission requested, Deidre Swesnik has also e-mailed you a copy of our recommendations. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or for additional information at (208) 232-9468.

Thank you for your time and attention.

Sincerely,

Richard Stallings

President
