Partners in Housing brings together Housers, Wrappers, Supporters, Government and Tenants to help solve affordable housing issues in Vermont.

Partners In Housing - VT is an Ad Hoc group of Housers, Wrappers, Supporters, Government and Tenants committed working together to identifying solutions to affordable housing challenges faced by communities across the state of Vermont.

• Housers are developers, renovators, investors, owners, landlords, property managers and anyone else engaged in the business of creating, providing, and managing housing. 

• Wrappers are the social service organizations that support their clients by helping them prepare for tenancy, locate housing, and stay housed with life skills education and support. 

• Supporters are the lawyers, realtors, bankers, property managers, plumbers, electricians, and all others who support the Housers in proving safe and healthy housing. 

• Government includes elected, appointed, or hired, includes all of the many agencies and authorities that have a piece of housing policy, legislation, oversight, enforcement, funding, and prioritization.

• Tenants are those who rent and live in apartments, houses, or other rental properties across our communities. They play a crucial role in the housing ecosystem and are the end-users of the housing provided by Housers, supported by Wrappers, and facilitated by Supporters and Government agencies.
