This event included a wide array of researchers, policymakers, advocates, and other stakeholders to explore housing policies that create meaningful impact on racial and health equity. P4A grantees shared highlights of their latest housing policy research as a starting point for discussing what could be on the horizon for new or improved equity-oriented housing policy solutions.
