Lessons from California’s Statewide Efforts to Affirmatively Further Fair Housing

To counter the impacts of decades of discriminatory housing policies and worsening racial segregation, the State of California established a number of Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH) strategies. Designed to foster racially and economically inclusive, opportunity-rich communities, these efforts were intended to facilitate effective local fair housing planning and enacting statewide policies to promote integrated communities. A new Terner Center policy brief highlights key AFFH strategies, noting areas of progress and where additional efforts are needed. It examines California’s successes and challenges since 2016, offering recommendations for other states working toward fair housing goals.
