Empowering people to make healtheir and more sustinable choices in the renovation and construction of the places we live
About us
The GreenHome Institute, a DBA of the Alliance for Environmental Sustainability (AES) is a 501(c)3 non-profit with a mission to empower people to make healthier and more sustainable choices in the renovation and construction of the places we live. GreenHome Institute was started by our Founder Michael Holcomb, Home Inspector General and community leaders Guy Bazzani and Gayle DeBruyn, Assistant Professor and Chief Sustainability Officer for Kendall College of Art and Design, in 2000. The organization was awarded grants for green building education programs delivered throughout Michigan and in 2005 became one of the Michigan Energy Demonstration Centers. Since then we have educated over 30,000 people internationally to (re)build better. In 2008 the Wege Foundation funded our Executive Director position with a seed grant to start our LEED for Homes and Green Building programs and since then we have certified nearly 9,000 green homes.

Because we believe everyone deserves green affordable housing, I am eager to learn from Madeleine McCullough and Todd Nedwick to discuss A Study Overview: State-by-State Green Tax Credit Affordable Housing This is a GreenHome Institute free CE webinar on Wed April 10th at 12pm EST. Will you join us? n early 2023, NHT embarked on the process of reviewing the Qualified Allocation Plans (QAPs) from all 50 state Housing Finance Agencies (HFAs) and three local allocating agencies (Chicago, New York City, and Washington, D.C.) to identify the strategies used to promote housing stability in the Housing Credit program. This webinar will focus on our QAP analysis and highlight how state HFAs are integrating policies around electrification, third-party green building standards, whole-building energy performance, and renewable energy to create and preserve affordable housing. NHT has a history of working with state and local agencies to strengthen their affordable housing policies, especially specific to the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (Housing Credit) program. The Housing Credit program is the largest federal source of financing for affordable housing, supporting the development and preservation of over 3.55 million units since 1987*. With our deep understanding of this critical resource, NHT’s efforts have helped to transform the program from one that favored new construction to one that preserves hundreds of thousands of units of affordable housing across the country. Will you consider joining us and help spread the word? https://lnkd.in/g6YUBF3H
