The Jepson School of Leadership Studies is partnering with the Better Housing Coalition to honor people whose leadership inspires change in the Greater Richmond community.
With a 20-plus year track record in community development, the Better Housing Coalition has demonstrated that long-term revitalization takes leadership and group efforts. In tribute to the leadership process and as a nod to leaders whose efforts are changing lives and communities, the coalition introduced an awards program in 2009 that showcases collaboration and vision.
"Our awards honor people in Greater Richmond who approach community problem solving in a systemic way," said T.K. Somanath, President/ CEO of the Better Housing Coalition. "We look for people who have long-term goals and approaches." Added board chair Lissy Bryan, "This work is a marathon not a sprint,"
Four awards will be presented. To nominate If you have questions, contact Dr. Kerstin Soderlund, associate dean for student and external affairs, at 287-6082 or ksoderlu@richmond.edu.
