Earlier this week, Emily Reyst, CEDAM’s director of external affairs, had the privilege of honoring Governor Gretchen Whitmer with the first-ever Community Development Legacy Award at the Building Michigan Communities Conference in Lansing.

The Award was presented to the Governor for her commitment to community, collaboration, and long-term impact, specifically her administration’s historic investments in the MI Housing and Community Development Fund, expanding the Working Families Tax Credit, and much more. Thank you to Governor Whitmer for ushering in policies and programs that build vibrant and resilient communities.
