2nd Annual B’nai B’rith Housing Gen2Gen Networking Event

Gen2Gen is B’nai B’rith Housing’s program for emerging leaders from both the public and private sectors who are brought together by their deep commitment to finding innovative housing solutions for the Greater Boston area. Gen2Gen events include networking and educational opportunities as well as roundtables with local thought and industry leaders. Recent events have featured Harvard Economist, Ed Glaeser, Boston’s Chief of Housing, Sheila Dillon, and Minneapolis activist, Janne Flisrand.

By connecting young professionals, emerging talent including students, and industry experts, BBH hopes to encourage dialogue around housing and other urban issues and bolster our mission to ease the housing crisis.
