Episode 505: Talking Fair Chance Housing

from Talk Policy To Me Hosted by Berkeley Institute for Young Americans and UC Berkeley's Goldman School of Public Policy

In February 2020, the Oakland City Council passed Oakland's Fair Chance Housing ordinance. The legislation was the first in California — joining cities nationwide like Seattle and Portland — to ensure that people returning home from the criminal justice system can legally live with family members and access, on their own, nearly all other forms of previously off-limits rental housing. In this episode, Talk Policy to Me host Amy Benziger talks to housing activists Margaretta Lin and Lee "Taqwaa" Bonner about the fight to bring this legislation nationwide.
