SUMMARY:Mad River Valley Backcountry Coalition Dawn Patrol
DESCRIPTION:Skiers and riders will meet at either Sugarbush or Mad River Glen in the wee hours of the morning to rise and rip! Exact time and location will be TBD each week based on conditions. The event leader will communicate the details each week via email/text to all who opt in to the group. Feel free to email info@mrvbc.org for more info. Uphill passes required at Sugarbush. All participants must read and adhere to the uphill policies: Sugarbush and Mad River Glen. All participants will be required to complete a waiver through MRVBC for each Thursday. Bring coffee/tea\, snacks\, and layers. See our Difficulty Rating System (https://www.mrvbc.org/events/tours) to determine if MRVBC’s tours are the right fit for you. This will be an intermediate uphill pace\, not a race! The downhill could be advanced terrain depending on conditions and route. Come prepared with knowledge of your own gear as this is not instruction\, but it is a great way to meet people\, get some amazing exercise and fresh air views\, and swap BC stories!\nSign up using the form linked on our website.

SUMMARY:BUILDING AFFORDABILITY SPEAKER SERIES – AFFORDABLE HOUSING: UNDERSTANDING LOCAL AND GLOBAL APPROACHES WITH ANYA BRICKMAN RAREDON
DESCRIPTION:Affordable Housing: Understanding Local and Global Approaches with Anya Brickman Raredon \nDrawing from her experience in over 20 countries\, Anya Brickman Raredon will share examples of housing ecosystem analyses that have led to the development of programs\, policies\, and projects to increase access and affordability of housing around the world. Whether in the US\, an emerging economy\, or a post-disaster environment\, successful housing markets arise when the underlying value chains of supply and demand are synchronized to respectively produce houses (supply) and finance (demand) at compatible price points. Anya will describe how the Affordable Housing Institute uses a practical\, rigorous\, and comprehensive methodology to understand and evaluate a local housing market\, identify key levers for change\, and to design and implement new paradigm solutions for urgent affordable housing and urban development challenges.
