Join our partners Together Colorado and the East County Housing Opportunity Coalition (ECHO) for a four-part training series on affordable housing in Boulder County. The series explores housing policies and their roots in segregation, how those policies influenced growth and development in Boulder County, what must be done to change our growth patterns to be more inclusive, and ways to organize around this issue.

The Regional Housing Partnership will be presenting on February 8th–see you there!

To recognize and celebrate the 50th anniversary of the passing of the Fair Housing Act, the Boulder County Regional Housing Partnership hosted a film screening and panel discussion on May 21, 2018. The event featured the short film “Seven Days” chronicling the week following the assassination of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. The film was followed by a moderated conversation with a panel of local and regional participants who shared their perspectives from the Civil Rights Era, how the Fair Housing Act plays out in our community today and current challenges facing our Front Range communities.
