Graciously honored for affordable housing advocacy

The Community Development Network, an association of nonprofit community development organizations, presented Sam with the Industry Partner Award at their Annual Awards Banquet in October. The Industry Partner Award goes to "an organization or individual that is an invaluable partner in strengthening nonprofit community development organizations or helping provide a collective voice for healthy, diverse communities."

CDN's executive director Sam Chase said that Sam Adams "isn't a politician at heart, but someone who knows how to navigate the political system. He seems to have a unique understanding of community needs and certainly understands that in order to succeed in life, people need stable and affordable housing."

Sam was in part honored because of his vocal support of ensuring that 30% of Urban Renewal Dollars are spent to address the need for affordable rental and ownership opportunities throughout our Urban Renewal Areas.
