COQ Awards Program 2022

National Sponsors of NAHMA’s 2022 Communities of Quality® Awards Program

Four Communities Earn NAHMA COQ Awards

The National Affordable Housing Management Association (NAHMA) announces that four communities won 2022 Communities of Quality (COQ) Awards this year. Since 1992, these awards have honored the best multifamily affordable housing communities across the country.

Entrants are judged on how they manage their properties’ physical, financial, and social conditions and how well they convey their success in offering their residents the highest quality of life.

The 2022 COQ Awards will be presented as part of a special luncheon and panel discussion with the winners on March 9 during the NAHMA’s Biannual Top Issues in Affordable Housing winter conference on March 8-10. For details on the NAHMA meeting, visit https://www.nahma.org/meetings/.

“There is no other award that focuses so comprehensively on the everyday life and management expertise of affordable housing properties,” Kris Cook, CAE, NAHMA CEO, said.

This year’s COQ Awards program is jointly sponsored by Navigate Affordable Housing Partners, a nonprofit engaged in developing, owning and managing affordable housing and consulting with various housing agencies and the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Section 8 project-based contract administrator (PBCA) for multiple states, and Yardi, which develops and supports industry-leading compliance, accounting and property management software for every type and size of affordable housing provider.
