Disparate Impact is a legal doctrine under the Fair Housing Act which states that a policy may be considered discriminatory if it has a disproportionate “adverse impact” against any group based on race, national origin, color, religion, sex, familial status, or disability when there is no legitimate, non-discriminatory business need for the policy. LeadingAge is concerned that HUD’s proposal would make it nearly impossible for residents and applicants to prove that they have been discriminated against.
