We are thrilled to celebrate the winners of the “What Home Means to Me” poster contest! Their creativity and imagination truly brought to life the meaning of “home”
About the contest
As part of the 2026 Housing America campaign, this poster contest was hosted by the National Association of Housing and Redevelopment Officials (NAHRO). It was open to children in grades K-12 who are connected to affordable housing or community development programs managed by NAHRO member agencies.
We were blown away by the powerful artwork submitted and we're proud to recognize young artists in two categories. NAHRO and All Entries.
