Reminder: Register Today | Post-COVID Mortgage Forbearance Options and Preventing Discriminatory Foreclosures

July 21, 2021 | 2:00-4:00 PM ET

Join the National Fair Housing Training Academy (NFHTA) and the National Fair Housing Alliance (NFHA) in a conversation focusing on post-COVID mortgage forbearance options and ways to prevent discriminatory foreclosures.

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a disproportionate negative effect on homeowners of color. As the federal moratorium protecting homeowners from foreclosure expires, the resulting loss of home ownership will have devastating financial implications for these families for generations. In addition, many homeowners of color do not have loans that fell under the foreclosure moratorium and have not had access to the same loss mitigation options.

This forum will contain information about housing assistance programs and loss mitigation strategies that may help prevent foreclosures; specify how a foreclosure may violate fair housing laws; and provide resources and tools that fair housing practitioners, attorneys, and housing counselors can utilize to prevent discriminatory foreclosures.
