Trustee, President & CEO
The NHP Foundation
Eric Price has dedicated over 30 years to preserving and creating affordable housing. Since joining NHPF in 2019 as Senior Vice President, he has shaped strategy, driven innovation, and expanded into new markets. As President, he led the issuance of NHPF’s first $75 million social bond in 2023, earning an AA- rating from Standard & Poor’s—the highest ever for a nonprofit social housing provider. He also secured NHPF’s first award from the CDFI Fund’s Capital Magnet Fund.
Previously, as Deputy Mayor for Planning and Economic Development in Washington, DC, Price oversaw agencies with a combined $120 million budget. He established dedicated tax revenue for the Housing Production Trust Fund, which has since invested $1 billion in affordable housing, and managed a $300 million Tax Increment Financing Program, spurring jobs and retail growth.
Price’s leadership spans community development, housing finance, and private development. As EVP of the AFL-CIO Housing Investment Trust, he facilitated financing through Housing Finance Agencies and FHA mortgage bankers. He also led a Community Development Entity deploying $185 million in New Market Tax Credits and held executive roles at LISC and Abdo Development.
