Moderator: Mathew Wambua, Vice Chair, NY Office, Merchants Capital. RiseBoro Staff Panelists: Emily Kurtz, VP, Housing; Mirtha Santana, VP Empowerment; Kristine Montanez, Dir., Supportive Services, Housing; Elena Zullo, VP, Education and Sandra Christian, VP, Seniors.
Overview: There is more to the affordable housing industry than the physical buildings. In this panel, we will focus on the critical services that RiseBoro provides to enhance housing development--from supportive services, empowerment and education, to seniors and meals delivery--and the staff who deliver them. Join us for a lightning round conversation with RB staff about the impact of stable housing on their participants since COVID, and conversely on the stabilizing impact of their programs on the housing stability of their participants.
