Hi John, This is your last chance to join us TOMORROW at 12-1PM PT for Making State Oversight More Equitable, a remote Brown Bag training that brings together local advocates to discuss the promise of Affirmatively Further Fair Housing (AFFH) and opportunities to further increase its impact! |

Background: First passed in 2018, California state AFFH law requires cities to promote access to opportunity, integration, transformation of underinvested communities, and compliance with fair housing law. Recently, cities across Northern California have incorporated the state mandate to AFFH into their Housing Elements. In some ways, the AFFH mandate transformed the nature of the Housing Element, causing cities to implement a suite of production, preservations, and protection policies that previously would have never been on the table. In other ways, AFFH rules failed to hold cities accountable, leaving some of their most exclusionary practices in place. |
