"What home means to me, it means you have to stay home with your family and have a great day with your family and when COVID-19 goes away we can go to the mall and hang out with friends and family. But, what home means to me is it is family here! We be having games, laugh here with my family, and I'm so so happy to have a family and a roof over my head and food. That means no school or friends and we have to wear masks for people and we have to do 6 feet away, that's home to me and my family." -by Bianca Hall

WHAT HOME MEANS TO ME - Poster Contest

The annual "What Home Means to Me" poster contest is part of NAHRO Housing America's campaign to inform the public and decision-makers about the need to meet the country's affordable housing and community development challenges. Posters are first judged at the local level and winners are sent to the next level, Carolinas Council of Housing Redevelopment and Codes Officials (CCHRCO). The winning posters from that round go on to compete at the regional level, through the Southeastern Regional Council of NAHRO. The SERC-NAHRO regional winners are then sent to the national level to be judged. NAHRO then selects 13 winning posters from submissions throughout the United States. Selected posters appear in the "What Homes Means to Me" calendar and the artists receive gift cards as recognition for their efforts.

Contest participation is open to all children in grades K-12 residing in affordable housing assisted directly, supported under community development, or participants in affordable housing programs administered by a NAHRO member authority (i.e., public or Section 8-assisted housing CDBG, HOME, LIHTC).

CCHRCO selects a 1st, 2nd & 3rd place winner for each category: 

• Elementary (K to 5th),
• Middle School (6th to 8th) and
• High School (9th to 12th)
