Episode 17: Urban Strategies Inc. Series Episode 2: How Can We Achieve the Transformative Impact of Fair Housing?

Update: 2023-08-23

Description

We continue our special
series focused on Urban Strategies, Inc., a national non-profit that exemplifies
the quest for urban equity and inclusion. Urban Strategies works with more than
30,000 low- to moderate-income families in 31 communities across 24 major
metropolitan areas. In this episode I talk with Richard Baron, board chair of
USI, Michael Bowen, USI board member, and Esther Shin, President and CEO of
USI. We discuss the enhancements and re-release of the Affirmatively Furthering
Fair Housing Rule by the Biden Administration and its promise and limitations.
We consider housing as a platform for building household wealth and changing
the trajectories of neighborhoods.
