WASHINGTON, July 15,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Register now for
the Quarterly Update on source of income discrimination
and laws hosted by HUD's Office of Policy Development &
Research (PD&R) on Thursday, July 25,
2024, from 2 PM to 4 PM
ET.
Over the past two decades, evidence of discrimination against
housing choice voucher holders has grown. More than half of voucher
households live in states and localities that have adopted
ordinances to prevent this kind of discrimination. This event will
bring together researchers, municipal and state government
officials, and fair housing practitioners to share insights into
the recent passage of local anti-discrimination ordinances,
evaluate research about the impacts of these anti-discrimination
laws, and discuss challenges to enforcing these ordinances.
