The Housing Development Alliance (HDA) is governed by a local board of directors and led by an experienced executive and senior management team. Our work is carried out by professional construction staff, program specialists, and community partners who together support housing development and preservation across southeastern Kentucky.
HDA’s leadership structure ensures strong governance, operational accountability, and long-term stewardship of resources – while honoring the skilled staff who work directly in homes and communities every day.
HDA is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors that provides fiduciary oversight, establishes organizational policy, and guides the long-term strategic direction of the Alliance. Board members reflect a cross-section of the communities HDA serves and bring expertise in housing, finance, construction, community development, and public service.
In accordance with HDA’s mission and bylaws, the Board includes representation from low-income community members and is responsible for ensuring that the organization’s work advances safe, affordable, and sustainable housing throughout southeastern Kentucky.
The Housing Development Alliance’s work is carried out by a multidisciplinary staff team that includes executive leadership, program managers, professional construction staff, and operational support personnel. Together, HDA staff bring experience in affordable housing development, construction, finance, housing counseling, disaster recovery, and community engagement. This integrated team works collaboratively to deliver housing solutions and steward resources across the region.
