Tom Yahn Housing Leadership Award
The Tom Yahn award is presented by Windham & Windsor Housing Trust and Brattleboro Housing Partnership on alternating years. The prestigious award recognizes community members who demonstrate a long term commitment to the preservation and development of affordable housing and/or the lives of those who live in affordable housing. The recipients will demonstrate through their actions that “Everything we do for citizens of our community must start with safe, decent, and affordable housing.” – Tom Yahn, 2007
Tom was a founding board member of WWHT, also served on the board of BHP, was an educator and beloved community member. He is fondly remembered for his impact, care, and commitment to collaborative spirit.
A Warm Thank You to our Annual Sponsors!
