Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH) Final Rule

Abstract

This link provides useful background to a legal requirement that federal agencies and federal grantees further the purposes of the Fair Housing Act of 1968. HUD's AFFH rule aims to assist communities in taking meaningful actions to overcome historic patterns of segregation, promote fair housing choice, and foster inclusive communities that are free from discrimination and address disparities in housing needs and in access to opportunity.
