Message from the Board Vice Chairman

Stephen M. Green

In 2015, Mayor Muriel Bowser nominated me and the City Council approved my appointment to serve as a member of DCHFA’s Board of Directors. Each year of my tenure, my colleagues have graciously elected me to serve as vice chairman of the Board. As a director of development in the Williams administration and currently the chief operating officer and chief investment officer of The NHP Foundation, I have a unique perspective on affordable housing development in the District and the vital role DCHFA serves in providing pathways to homeownership and affordable rental housing.

During my seven years as a member of the Board, I have witnessed the Agency launch and expand programs to address the housing needs of District residents, and FY 2022 has been no exception. Throughout market fluctuations, DCHFA’s pipeline, portfolio and staff have remained steadfast and resilient.

On behalf of DCHFA’s entire Board of Directors, I commend the leadership and staff of the Agency and look forward to all of us continuing to collaborate on innovative solutions that bring even more affordable housing to District residents.

DCHFA would like to give a special thank you to Buwa Binitie, former board chairman. Mr. Binitie served as the board chairman for eight years before his term came to an end during FY 2022. During his tenure, DCHFA launched the Housing Investment Platform, ReMIT, DC MAP and several other initiatives that emboldened every division of the Agency.
