Virginia Housing Alliance - Bay Aging
 
 
 
Virginia Housing Alliance’s (VHA) VISTA project is a statewide project that works to expand affordable housing opportunities and end homelessness throughout the Commonwealth of Virginia. VHA’s VISTA project aims to develop viable communities by promoting integrated approaches that provide decent housing, suitable living environments, and expansive economic opportunities for low and moderate-income persons. Bay Aging, a non-profit formed in 1978, serves the 10 counties of the Northern Neck and Middle Peninsula of Virginia through three major service divisions: Bay Housing, Bay Health, and Bay Transit. Bay Aging is designated as an Area Agency on Aging, Community Action Agency, and Lead Agency of the Northern Neck Middle Peninsula Housing Coalition. While serving neighbors from all facets of the community, Bay Aging’s services for older adults are critical as four out of the five counties with the oldest population are located in Bay Aging’s service area. The VISTA member will establish a cohesive coordination centered around housing opportunities for low-income families, older adults, and people with disabilities. In addition, the VISTA member will work to expand program opportunities, evaluate growing community needs, propose program enhancements to create efficiencies, conduct marketing and outreach, and eliminate community and agency silos.

Member Duties : At Bay Aging, the VISTA member will explore new multi-family and single family housing production opportunities, including grants, partnerships, and fee for service opportunities. The VISTA will assist in the opening of Bay Aging’s newest Low Income Housing Tax Credit property (Daffodil Gardens Phase II) dedicated to serving older adults, which is set to open Spring 2022. With the new property, the VISTA will be creating operation-compliance policies and procedures, developing resident processing documentation, and producing marketing/outreach materials that reach underserved and “least likely to apply” populations. Additionally, the VISTA will be involved in identifying stakeholder engagement opportunities, analyzing databases used by housing programs to locate potential opportunities to integrate with other services, and support the expansion of new services through research into proven best practices.
