Habitat for Humanity of Pennsylvania (HFHPA) is a nonprofit organization that works locally on behalf of the global Habitat for Humanity organization. It unites people through God’s love to build homes, communities, and hope.

Each year the HFHPA sponsors an annual state conference. With a theme of “Framing the Future of Pennsylvania,” the 2016 conference included collaborations, forums, and orientations. Attendees had opportunities to meet with vendors, network with others, and attend the HFHPA board meeting. Keynote speakers included Victoria Bourret, the communications and project manager for the Housing Alliance of Pennsylvania; David J. Corwin, the director of housing programs for Pennsylvania USDA Rural Development; and Sarah W. Mackey, CFRE, an organizational development consultant for Habitat for Humanity International.
