National Fair Housing Alliance Comment Letter: Removing Criminal Conviction Restrictions for Fair Housing Testers
LeadingAge signed onto a National Fair Housing Alliance comment letter to HUD. The letter supports HUD’s proposal to remove criminal conviction restrictions for fair housing testers at affordable housing properties. The letter urges HUD to allow FHIP and FHAP-funded agencies to establish their own qualifications for fair housing testers, providing them with the flexibility to tailor testing strategies based on the unique characteristics and challenges of their local housing markets.
