In January 2016, a group of 11 fraternity and sorority professionals joined a handful of dedicated vendors and partners for a first-ever conference to plan the future of professional development and organization for Fraternal Housing. From that starting point, a strong desire to build a headquarters-based platform took hold.

Founded in 2017, the Fraternal Housing Association now stands as the premier organization representing and assisting housing and real estate professionals, vendors, and partners to address the shared issues, concerns, and priorities facing the Fraternal Housing industry.

The Fraternal Housing Association (FHA) hosts an annual conference each fall, offering a unique environment for collaboration among attendees and broad networking across industry channels.

The FHA Annual Conference has an unparalleled focus on sharing best practices rather than competing for attention with “pitches” to other attendees. There is simply no other event that elevates professionals and partners toward a common purpose as well as the FHA Annual Conference!
