Programs will help housing authority commissioners connect governance, portfolio strategy, organizational readiness, and resident outcomes.
The Beatty Group has been selected to lead commissioner training at the 2026 CCHRCO Annual Conference, August 24–25, and the 2026 GAHRA Annual Conference, September 21.
While the programs differ in scope, both reflect a central principle of The Beatty Group’s transformation approach:
RAD is a redevelopment tool. Transformation is the strategy.
Housing authorities face aging properties, significant capital needs, constrained funding, and growing expectations for resident and community outcomes. Meeting these challenges requires more than completing a redevelopment transaction. It requires clear strategic direction, effective governance, organizational readiness, financial stewardship, and disciplined execution.
CCHRCO Annual Conference
At the CCHRCO Annual Conference, The Beatty Group will deliver Leading Transformation: Governance, Strategy, and Portfolio Repositioning, a comprehensive program covering three connected areas:
Governance as Leadership
Commissioners will examine the board’s role in setting strategic direction, overseeing performance, guiding transformation, and maintaining appropriate boundaries between governance and management.
From Strategy to Execution
The program will explore how authorities translate strategic priorities into measurable organizational, portfolio, financial, and resident outcomes.
RAD as Strategy
Commissioners will examine RAD as a potential tool for portfolio repositioning, asset preservation, and long-term sustainability. The session will address program structures, financial considerations, risks, and expected outcomes within the authority’s broader transformation strategy.
GAHRA Annual Conference
At the GAHRA Annual Conference, The Beatty Group will present RAD as a Strategic Tool for Portfolio Repositioning.
This focused session will help commissioners and senior leaders evaluate RAD as more than a HUD program or compliance process. Participants will examine how RAD can support asset preservation, capital investment, portfolio stability, and organizational sustainability.
The training will help participants:
Understand RAD within HUD’s evolving public housing model
Distinguish compliance from strategic portfolio repositioning
Apply governance principles to RAD decisions
Evaluate financial, portfolio, risk, and resident considerations
Assess organizational readiness
Connect redevelopment decisions to long-term transformation
One Transformative Perspective
Both programs reinforce a common perspective: financial closing is an important milestone, but it is not the ultimate measure of success.
The more important question is whether redevelopment:
Protects the authority’s mission and resident interests
Preserves and strengthens the housing portfolio
Improves financial sustainability
Expands organizational capacity
Produces better outcomes for residents and communities
Creates a platform for continued transformation
Achieving these outcomes requires alignment between governance and execution. The board establishes direction, evaluates major risks, protects the mission, and oversees results. Executive leadership aligns the people, systems, resources, and partnerships needed to implement that direction.
The Beatty Group helps housing authority leaders turn redevelopment opportunities into lasting organizational and portfolio transformation.
In the weeks leading up to the conferences, The Beatty Group will share practical insights on governance, portfolio strategy, organizational readiness, financial stewardship, and resident-centered transformation.
