It is with profound regret that due to coronavirus concerns, NAHREP must cancel its 2020 National Convention and Housing Policy Summit originally scheduled for March 16-18 in Washington DC. While we did everything possible to avoid this decision, we must act in the best interests of our members, partners and stakeholders. We are especially grateful to our registered members, speakers and sponsors who stuck with us all the way.
To replace this event, we will be announcing a number of large-scale regional events that will take place over the summer. Over the coming days and weeks we will be making a series of related announcements that will provide more details.
NAHREP remains committed to serving our members, our mission and our industry. We are confident that this unfortunate situation will soon pass over and we will all be stronger for it. In the meantime, our staff has prepared FAQs for your convenience displayed immediately below this notice.
Sincerely,
NAHREP National Board of Directors
Cancellation FAQ
Will the convention be rescheduled?
NAHREP is exploring options for rescheduling the event and is working to provide a virtual experience for the State of Hispanic Homeownership Report Release. An announcement regarding the conference rescheduling will be forthcoming.
Will I be reimbursed for the cost of my registration?
If you purchased your registration with a credit card, your registration will be refunded in full. Please allow up to 5 business days to see a credit to your account.

What do I do if I already booked my flight?
Due to this outbreak, many airlines are offering flexible cancelation and reschedule policies. Please contact your airline as soon as possible to explore your individual options. It is your responsibility to cancel your flights.
