This workshop is designed to help you write a SHIP Local Housing Assistance Plan (LHAP) that is clear, concise and complies with all of the new requirements. It is sponsored by the Florida Housing Finance Corporation’s Affordable Housing Catalyst Program. Priority for attendance will be given to SHIP jurisdictions scheduled to submit an updated LHAP in May 2016. If space is available the workshop will be open to staff from all SHIP communities. The training will highlight details in the updated LHAP template, offer instructions on properly completing the Housing Delivery Goals Chart and other required forms, and help you assess how to enhance your housing strategies. Learn best practices to ensure quick approval, as well as common mistakes to avoid.

Participate in exercises designed to enhance your understanding of key plan requirements. The presenters will also address the development of an Affordable Housing Advisory Committee (AHAC) report, which must be completed before an LHAP is submitted.

Key Topics:

Deadlines and responsibilities in the LHAP approval process
Designing Housing Strategies that work in a changing market
Properly defining terms of assistance
Submission of the LHAP
