On 12/27/2025, there was a fire in one of the apartments in the Samuel Elliot Apartment Building at 107 Elliot Street.
There is considerable water damage to 18 apartments. BHP is working with community partners to meet residents’ needs during this difficult time.
We thank residents, the town of Brattleboro, the Police, Fire, and Public Works departments, the Red Cross and all others who have and continue to help.
BHP has received many offers of help from the community. Please check back over the next few days as we assess and organize needs.
The following is information regarding the Annual Waiting List Update and Purge for the Vermont State Housing Authority (VSHA) and its network of housing partners. Each year, on behalf of VSHA and its partners Affordablehousing.com will conduct an update and purge of the (90+) waiting lists to ensure applicant information is current and to remove individuals who are no longer interested in housing assistance. This process is essential for maintaining accurate, efficient, and responsive waitlist management. Key Points for Applicants: Applicants who do not respond to the update request will be removed from the waiting list without further notification. It is critical that all applicants keep their mailing address, phone number, and email address up to date to avoid unintended removal. 2025 Update Schedule:
May 1, 2025: First notification sent via email and text message to applicants who have not updated their application in over one year. (For those who have opted into this feature.)
May 15, 2025:USPS First Class Mail update request sent to any remaining applicants who have not yet responded online or through VSHA or a PBV Partner.
May 29, 2025:Deadline to complete the update process.
May 30, 2025: Applicants who have not completed their update by this date will be removed from the waiting list.
Please help us by reminding applicants you work with about this process and encouraging them to complete their updates in a timely manner. As a reminder, please stay informed and refer applicants to Vermont.AffordableHousing.com for updates. If you have any questions or need support with applicant communications, feel free to reach out to us.
