Home Trust Annual Meeting
Posted November 1, 2013 at 5:20 am by Tim Dustrude
The 12th Annual Meeting of the San Juan Community Home Trust will feature affordable housing advocate Greg Winter, speaking on “Local and regional housing affordability strategies – examples from Whatcom and Skagit Counties.”
Greg Winter is Director of the Whatcom Homeless Service Center at the Opportunity Council in Bellingham, and Chair of the Whatcom County Coalition to End Homelessness. He is also president of the research firm Cornerstone Strategies.
This October, Winter received a “Friend of Housing Award” at the WA State Affordable Housing Conference in Spokane, in part for his role in the success of the Bellingham Home Fund levy that was approved by Bellingham voters last year.
He is knowledgeable about affordable housing issues in San Juan County, working with the Family Resource Centers on San Juan, Orcas and Lopez Islands to help them deliver several grant-funded homeless prevention programs. He also managed the 2011 San Juan County Prosperity Project community assessment.
A pizza and salad dinner will be provided by the Home Trust. The public is invited at no charge. Please RSVP to the Home Trust by email at

or call 378-5541 to reserve your spot. Following dinner and the presentation, an annual business meeting and election of Board members will take place.
Annual Meeting: Thursday, Nov. 14th, 6pm at the Friday Harbor Grange
