Join us for an in-depth discussion and overview of HUD's latest fair housing guidance on rental applicant screening. This webinar will delve into the practical implications of the guidance, offer compliance strategies, and explore how policymakers can harness this framework to develop local and state tenant screening policies that promote fair and non-discriminatory housing access. Additionally, we will present new research on the harms caused by automated tenant screening practices, as well as critical insights into the limitations and challenges of portable tenant screening reports. Designed for housing advocates, landlords, property managers, legal practitioners, and policymakers, this session will provide essential tools and perspectives for aligning tenant screening practices with fair housing principles and advancing inclusive, equitable housing communities.
