NAHRO Names 2025 Fellows
In 2007, the NAHRO Board of Governors established the Fellowship Program to recognize and honor members whose careers exemplify outstanding achievement, service, and leadership. NAHRO Fellows are selected by their peers for their accumulated wisdom and mastery—demonstrated not only through their accomplishments but also through their lasting impact on communities across the country. On September 29, at the NAHRO Conference and Exhibition in Phoenix, Arizona, four new fellows were inducted.
” Our Fellows represent the very best of our profession,” said NAHRO CEO Mark Thiele. “They are visionaries, problem-solvers, and advocates whose impact extends far beyond their agencies and organizations. Throughout their careers, they’ve shown an unwavering commitment to advancing housing opportunity, promoting equity, and strengthening the communities they serve. Congratulations to our 2025 Fellows!”
NAHRO is proud to present the 2025 NAHRO Fellows:
