Professor Florence Wagman Roisman, William F. Harvey Professor of Law, will be a featured speaker at Seattle University School of Law's "Fair Housing Law & Practice" Conference on March 15-16.
The conference will examine what legal services housing advocates are doing in the areas of housing discrimination based on race, gender, familial status, disability, immigration status, and source of income. Roisman, along with John A. Powell, Executive Director of the Kirwan Institute for the Study of Race and Ethnicity at Ohio State University, will also discuss fair housing laws and preservation and development of low income housing, high opportunity area fair housing strategies, disability discrimination and reasonable accommodation, and public housing authorities and LEP policies.
