I would like to be part of the solution of how to address <br /> these problems in my community. <br /> Conflict of Interest: <br /> Affordable Housing Advisory Board <br /> Background, education and experience relevant to this board: <br /> I am a student at UNC s School of Government and I am focusing on local affordable housing <br /> issues.
