NFHA's Lisa Rice on Civil Rights and Housing Justice
from Beyond Four Walls: Conversations on Affordable Housing · host National Housing Conference
In this week's episode, we welcome Lisa Rice, President and CEO of the National Fair Housing Alliance, the nation's only national civil rights agency solely dedicated to eliminating all forms of housing discrimination. She has been instrumental in shaping fair housing policy, helping create the CFPB's Office of Fair Lending and contributing to the Dodd-Frank Act. She has also led groundbreaking investigations that have brought justice to countless individuals impacted by discriminatory lending and housing practices. Rice joins NHC President and CEO David Dworkin to reflect on how history—particularly America's legacy of slavery and systemic discrimination—continues to shape housing access and equity today. She shares her early inspiration for civil rights work, the pivotal role of the Fair Housing Act, and the ongoing challenges of addressing inequality.
