2024 BIABA SMC Board Meeting - Open to General Membership - Apr. 18
| The Sales & Marketing Council of the BIA Bay Area invite you to join the board for a monthly meeting open to the general membership. | |
| Featuring SMC's Guest Speaker Series with Crisand Giles, Executive Director, HomeAid Northern California. | |
 |
Crisand’s knowledge of Bay Area construction activities started in geotechnical engineering, where she used her degrees in Soil Science and Organic Chemistry to work on active construction sites to meet changing storm water regulations. Her work opened opportunities with the Building Industry Association (BIA) of the Bay Area and Sacramento Region to advance public policies that help ensure an adequate supply of quality, affordable housing and to preserve homeownership opportunities that promote a healthy regional economy. |
She has twenty-eight years of experience in public policy and as a forward planner, where she was involved in every level of design and project entitlement for residential and commercial projects with Greenbriar Homes, Pardee Homes, and Shea Homes. Crisand has used that experience to maintain and create new relationships with homebuilders, care providers, and government officials in her role as Executive Director of HomeAid Northern California. HomeAid's unique nonprofit model mobilizes members of the BIA to give back to the community by donating labor, materials, and expertise to build and remodel dignified housing for homeless families and individuals so they can rebuild their lives. Through the generosity of BIA builders, trade partners, financial institutions, and members of the community, HomeAid Northern California has successfully completed over 50 building projects, created 56,316 beds for our unhoused neighbors since 1999 and investing more than $12.3 million of in-kind contributions and $25.2 million in total housing value for homeless veterans, men, women and children. We have also completed over 85 Care Days and Drives to collect items to support Bay Area Care Providers that include: blankets, clothing, diapers and essentials for mothers and children, school supplies, and holiday toys. |
