PRRAC Civil Rights Research Paper. By Sarah Oppenheimer, (MPH, Harvard School of Public Health, and Ph.D candidate, University of Washington), with Megan Haberle, Etienne Toussaint, and Philip Tegeler.
This summary report is an update to our 2008 report, Building Opportunity: Civil Rights Best Practices in the Low Income Housing Tax Credit Program (PRRAC and the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law)…The present analysis uses the most recent finalized QAP for each state available as of fall 2014, plus Chicago and New York City (which have separate QAPs from their state HFAs). While this update includes many of the measures established in the 2008 report, it has been adapted to reflect recent trends in LIHTC requirements and state and federal housing policies.
