April is Fair Housing Month and a great time to affirm you’re helping to build thriving, inclusive communities. Fair housing impacts all NAR members, all markets, and all neighborhoods. Check yourself. Educate yourself. Hold yourself accountable. Because That’s Who We R®.

FAIR HOUSING BOOK RECOMMENDATIONS

Residential segregation in America didn’t happen by accident. Americans of different races live apart because of deliberate actions by public and private actors. NAR compiled this collection of fair housing titles to help members deepen their understanding of how we became divided, and of the ramifications of living in a segregated society.

FAIR HOUSING FILM AND VIDEO RECOMMENDATIONS

Short videos, documentaries, and a feature length major motion picture to help educate about housing discrimination, segregation, and the people working to correct these social and economic wrongs. Also, please visit the videos section of the nar.realtor/fair-housing page for additional videos produced by NAR highlighting our advocacy efforts and legal guidance on fair housing.

FAIR HOUSING PODCASTS

Like to learn about the world from podcasts? We’ve got you covered. From This American Life to The Bowery Boys, NAR presents podcasts that will educate you on Fair Housing.

FAIR HOUSING JOURNALISM

These articles feature the work of NAR experts, top media outlets, investigative journalists and civil rights scholars. They’ll help you deepen your understanding of fair housing in less time than it takes to read an entire book.

SPOTLIGHT ON LOCAL AND NATIONAL FAIR ORGANIZATIONS

Fair housing organizations work in communities across the country, as well as at the state and national levels, to educate the public about fair housing, investigate claims of discrimination, and push for policies that promote housing rights. They work in partnership with governments and private housing providers to promote best practices to prevent discrimination and foster diverse, inclusive communities.
