RE: Upcoming Virtual Fair Housing Conference 2021
In celebration of April as Fair Housing Month and the anniversary of the passage of the Fair Housing Act, Fair Housing Advocates of Northern California is pleased to present the upcoming virtual conference, “Riding the Wave of Change: Advancing Fair Housing and Equity in a New Era,” to be held on Thursday, April 29, 2021.
The conference will feature the following speakers:
 • George Lipsitz, Research Professor Emeritus of Black Studies and Sociology, University of California, Santa       Barbara
 • Gustavo Velasquez, Director, California Department of Housing and Community Development
 • Tyrone Buckley, Assistant Deputy Director of Fair Housing, California Department of Housing and Community   Development
 • Caroline Peattie, Executive Director, Fair Housing Advocates of Northern California
 • Julian Glover, Race, Culture, and Social Justice Reporter, ABC7 KGO-TV Bay Area
 • Cashauna Hill, Executive Director, Louisiana Fair Housing Action Center
 • Moderator: William R. Tisdale, President and Chief Executive Officer, Metropolitan Milwaukee Fair Housing   Council

The presenters will explore the question of how to advance fair housing and racial equity in a new era – specifically, how we can best promote affirmative policies, given a new administration that has stated in its first week that racial equity and fair housing are central priorities. The event will bring together community members, non-profits, advocates, real estate professionals, and municipal leaders and staff to address pressing fair housing issues affecting communities in the Bay Area and strategies to re-energize fair housing initiatives.

General admission is $20, with scholarships available upon request. Visit FHANC’s conference page for more information, including presenter’s bios, or to register for the event:

The conference is presented by Fair Housing Advocates of Northern California and sponsored by:
Mechanics Bank, Luther Burbank Savings and Loan, Marin Community Foundation, Marin Association of Realtors, Marin Sanitary Services, First Federal Savings and Loan, United Educators for Housing and Literacy, Westamerica Bank, City of Fairfield, Marin Interfaith Council, and Mr. and Mrs. Curtis Perrott
