EXECUTIVE SUMMARY INTRODUCTION In Washington, D.C., as across much of the nation, our country’s long history of housing discrimination and segregation continues to shape where people live, who their neighbors are, and what kind of access they have to our collective resources. In D.C., as well as the surrounding region, there remain stark patterns of residential segregation, even though today’s causes are in some ways more subtle than the redlining and restrictive covenants of the past. There are also meaningful disparities among demographic groups across a range of issues that closely intertwine with housing discrimination and segregation (and the equally long, related trajectory of disinvestment and economic vulnerability). The dramatic housing cost increases and waves of displacement experienced by many residents present an additional fair housing challenge for the District, often leading to both housing instability and the reconstitution of segregation and poverty.

In addition, the technical assistance providers, organizers, attorneys, District agency staff, and lenders who connected us to residents and shared their experiences working with LECs were critical to understanding the full process. Additionally, students in the Virginia Commonwealth University’s Masters of Urban and Regional Planning program’s Housing Policy course contributed to this study through conducting interviews and developing background research during the spring 2019 semester. Peter Tatian (Urban Institute) provided valuable feedback, which improved this report.
