Washington, D.C. – With profound sadness, the Coalition for Nonprofit Housing & Economic Development (CNHED) announces that its longtime, 15-year Executive Director Robert “Bob” Pohlman died yesterday, Thursday, April 26.
Bob was a beloved figure in the community development field – and a great friend and colleague to so many of us. He served as CNHED’s founding Executive Director from 2000 –2014, and under his tireless leadership, CNHED grew to be widely recognized as the leading advocacy and capacity building organization in the District of Columbia for community development.
