Emily Cadik is highly respected in the affordable housing sector, with WAHN as one of her biggest fan clubs. Her advice on exposure therapy as a tool for personal growth highlights her bravery, evident in her early career as a trailblazing woman in many male-dominated spaces. Through her insightful points on self-worth and knowledge sharing, she’s earned widespread respect and continues to inspire with her evolving work in the field throughout the year.
“At my first job [at U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development], I visit 13 housing agencies around the country and learned what public housing looks like – in Baltimore (where I visited a 1,400 unit project) versus Boulder, Colorado (where their public housing has community gardens and bikes sit outside without locks).
I saw how important affordable housing was and how few young people were in it, so I stuck around to see where I could make an impact.”
– Emily Cadik, CEO at Affordable Housing Tax Credit Coalition
