About VRSC
A brief history
In 1995, a small group of Vermont resident service coordinators
began meeting informally for support and information. In order
to meet the HUD mandated guidelines for service coordinators, the
group added an educational
training session to the quarterly meeting agenda.
The need for professional development continued to grow and, as a result, the group decided to organize and incorporate.
In 2002, VRSC's by-laws (28kb; PDF) were written, the first officers were elected, and the group incorporated to become Vermont Resident Service Coordinators, Inc.
VRSC, Inc. offers
support, training, and educational opportunities to its members.
Informational meetings are held quarterly. VRSC, Inc. also
provides members with monthly electronic and quarterly newsletters.
Support from
Vermont Housing Finance
Agency
Throughout
the process of VRSC's
development, Vermont
Housing Finance Agency (VHFA) has been a constant presence. Sam
Falzone,
VHFA's Director of Multifamily Programs, attended the first
meeting of interested resident service coordinators after the HUD
training mandate was published. Since the beginning, VHFA has assisted,
sustained, and shared in VRSC's work and success.
