2010 NATIONAL FAIR HOUSING POLICY CONFERENCE JANIS BOWDLER DEPUTY DIRECTOR, WEALTH-BUILDING POLICY PROJECT Delivering Fair Housing Rights to Latino Families

National Council of La Raza NCLR is the largest national Hispanic civil rights and advocacy organization in the U.S., established to reduce poverty and discrimination and improve opportunities for Hispanic Americans. NCLR has been promoting fair housing practices for Latinos for more than two decades.

Overview Resources Tips for Outreach New Challenges Background

The Hispanic community is a driving force behind our national population growth. Despite evidence of discrimination, Latino families are among the least likely to file a complaint. Families are facing new challenges such as anti- immigrant laws and post-foreclosure segregation.

Background FAST FACT Immigrants and their children will account for 82% of household growth between 2005 and 2050.

New Challenges Anti-immigrant sentiments, laws, and restrictive ordinances create hostile housing environments and new challenges for Latino families and fair housing advocates. Hazelton, Pennsylvania “Do not rent” law Manassas, Virginia Changed the definition of “family” Arizona Requires police officers to make arrests on suspicion of immigration status Farmers Branch, Texas “Do not rent” and English-only laws

New Challenges Record-high foreclosure rate among Latino families raises a number of fair housing concerns. Lack of sustainable loan modifications Flood of financially vulnerable families into rental market Segregation

Tips for Outreach Conduct events, testing and enforcement activities in anti-immigrant hot spots Partner with community-based organizations Leverage Spanish-language media and word-of-mouth networks Ensure that you have the capacity to support bilingual materials Identify the most pressing barriers to housing and neighborhoods of choice
