Partnerships for Low-Cost Housing Seminar Subject

“Forging new financial partnerships for affordable housing” is the topic of a daylong conference to be held Sept. 27 at the Westin Bonaventure Hotel in downtown Los Angeles.

The conference is being sponsored by the Southern California Assn. of Non-Profit Housing, a group that supports nonprofit housing-development organizations.

Several leaders from the public, private and nonprofit sectors will discuss new approaches to partnership programs. State Treasurer Kathleen Brown will deliver the morning keynote address.

A luncheon presentation will be made by Dean Schultz, president of the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco. State Sen. David A. Roberti (D-Los Angeles) will receive the group’s annual award for his “leadership and commitment” to make housing more affordable.
