Location: Richmond Marriott Hotel

The Housing Virginia’s Most Vulnerable (HVMV) Conference brings together service providers, healthcare professionals, and housing leaders working to support individuals and families with the greatest housing needs across the Commonwealth. Hosted by the Virginia Housing Alliance, HVMV creates space to share practical strategies, strengthen partnerships, and advance solutions that promote housing stability and end homelessness.

Since 2012, VHA has convened leaders from across Virginia’s housing and homelessness response system to address complex challenges and drive meaningful progress. As the organization celebrates its 10th anniversary, HVMV continues to play a critical role in elevating housing stability as a statewide priority, building capacity among providers, and supporting policies that expand access to safe, affordable housing—especially for Virginia’s most vulnerable.

2026 Theme: Create! Turning Ideas Into Impact

As the final installment of VHA’s Connect, Collaborate, Create series, this year’s theme focuses on turning ideas into action. Sessions will highlight innovative approaches and real-world strategies responding to Virginia’s evolving housing challenges.
