Indiana Lt. Governor Presents YOUnity Village with Urban Affordable Housing Award

YOUnity Village, a 30 unit supportive housing development in Terre Haute, was awarded the Excellence in Affordable Housing and Community Development award by Lt. Governor Sue Ellspermann at the 2013 Indiana Housing and Economic Development Annual Conference. This conference was hosted by the Indiana Housing and Community Development Authority and the Indiana Association of Community Economic Development.

She has developed a premier development that serves the most vulnerable people who had previously experienced homelessness in Terre Haute and live with a mental illness. Myra led her team, including staff from Mental Health of America Vigo County and Hamilton Center, through the Indiana Permanent Supportive Housing Institute and facilitated their progress, bringing YOUnity Village to life.
