CHT in the Community
In January, CHT President and CEO Kimberly Sanchez hosted community land trust leaders from across the state who make up the North Carolina Community Land Trust Coalition for a day-long advocacy planning session. This newly-formed group was featured in a recent article from NC Newsline.
Last month, our staff also stepped away from their day-to-day work to come together for a team retreat. Guided by Paradox Consulting Partners, we took time to refocus our values and strengthen connections with one another. We look forward to putting the lessons learned into action.
Kimberly and CHT were also featured in Grounded Solutions’ rental report Community Land Trusts in the Rental Market: Practices, Challenges, and Opportunities, sharing how CHT is working to address the rental housing affordability crisis in our community.
Follow us on social media to see how CHT is showing up across the community.
