Congratulations to the 2026 NAHRO Merit College Scholarship recipients, and a special congratulations to this year's three NAHRO-LDG Scholars!

Since 2019, the NAHRO-LDG Scholars Program has supported 21 outstanding students through scholarships and internship opportunities as part of our 10-year, $1 million commitment to expanding educational opportunities.

We're also proud to celebrate the release of the first-ever NAHRO-LDG Scholar Impact Report, showcasing the lasting impact this program is making in the lives of our scholars.

Introducing the 2026 NAHRO Merit College Scholarship winners!

Representing each of NAHRO’s eight regional councils, these students live in a household or are provided a housing related service by a NAHRO member agency; and are pursuing their first post-secondary degree in fields such as civil engineering, biology, communication, nursing, business administration, architecture and elementary education.

From these eight regional winners, three outstanding students have been additionally awarded the multi-year NAHRO-LDG Scholarship: Adriana Nunez Tang, Isabelle Mohr, and Chyla Richardson (pictured across the top). The NAHRO-LDG Scholars Program is a 10-year venture — funded by the award-winning multi-family housing developer LDG Development — providing $1 million in scholarships and internship opportunities.

NAHRO will continue the celebration of these exceptional students this fall at the 2026 National Conference & Exhibition in Denver, CO. See you there!

We're proud to announce that Phoenix Station in Decatur, GA, and Balcones Trails in Kyle, TX, have officially stabilized.

These communities represent more than 500 affordable homes for hardworking families and another step toward our mission of creating quality housing where it's needed most.

Thank you to everyone whose hard work made this possible!

Wishing all of our employees and their families a happy Independence Day weekend.

Thank you for everything you do to help build stronger communities and make a difference every day.

Juneteenth is a time to reflect on freedom, resilience and the ongoing pursuit of opportunity for all.

As we commemorate the day enslaved people in Texas learned of their freedom more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation, we also recognize the importance of creating communities where individuals and families have the opportunity to thrive.

Today, we honor the history, contributions and achievements of Black Americans while reaffirming our commitment to developing housing that helps create a brighter future for generations to come.

Happy Juneteenth. ❤️🖤💚

We're disappointed by the St. Matthews City Council's decision regarding Gilmans Point.

Throughout the planning process, our team worked closely with local stakeholders, listened to community feedback and made meaningful changes to address concerns related to housing needs and traffic impacts. We believe the proposed development complies with all applicable ordinances and represents an opportunity to help address the region's growing housing shortage.

Gilmans Point will bring nearly 200 high-quality homes and a variety of resident amenities to an area where housing options continue to be limited for many working families, seniors and individuals.

Our commitment remains unchanged. Since our founding, we've operated under a simple belief: Everyone deserves a quality place to live. We will continue working with communities and partners to create responsible housing solutions that expand access to safe, attainable and high-quality housing throughout Louisville and beyond.

Community is about more than a place to live — it’s about the connections we build along the way.

Residents recently gathered for a pizza party that brought neighbors together, created new friendships and gave everyone an opportunity to connect with the onsite team. Events like these help foster a sense of belonging and strengthen the communities we are proud to create.

Thank you to the team for hosting such a fun afternoon. It looks like everyone had a great time, and we love seeing residents come together to share a meal, laughter and good company.

Meet Meagan Sturgeon

In 2024, Meagan began her role as a Project Manager for Rickhaus (an LDG Affiliate). Her primary responsibilities include project management for GA, NC, and SC markets to get approved plans/permits in the dirt and go vertical; perform site test fits for development for potential sites; and support the development team in efforts to get application submittal documents in those markets.

Her interest in her career began with her grandpa and father. Her grandpa was a local general contractor. Her dad was a fire protection sprinkler fitter by trade, but he also installed private septic systems and worked for their hometown installing/repairing waterlines. Meagan gravitated towards math/science academically and, at first, her dad wanted her to be a mechanical engineer to design the systems he installed. However, Meagan chose civil engineering due to her interest in grading and drainage.

Something you may not know about Rickhaus is that they're involved from start to finish on projects, from concept to construction completion. Her favorite part of her job is watching the construction drawings come to life. Meagan says "It's like a real-life pop-up book to go from plan to under construction."
