ACHP/HUD Secretary’s Award for Excellence in Historic Preservation
In partnership with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the ACHP/HUD Secretary’s Award for Excellence in Historic Preservation recognizes a project that has advanced the goals of historic preservation while providing affordable housing to low- and moderate-income families and individuals and supporting community and/or economic development. Nominated projects and activities are judged on the success they have achieved in rehabilitating, restoring, preserving, and interpreting architectural and cultural heritage.
