The work of the Housing Development Alliance is overseen by a board of directors representing various aspects of the local community, including at least two members who are low-income. HDA’s board is responsible for establishing policy and guiding the Alliance’s work to build, repair, rehabilitate, develop, improve, and preserve housing in the southeastern Kentucky counties of Breathitt, Knott, Leslie, and Perry.
HDA's board meets on the last Thursday of each month at 5:30 p.m. in the conference room of HDA's office building on North Main Street in Hazard, KY.
