SUMMARY:Housing Justice 2.0 - Technology\, Reform\, and Civil Rights
DESCRIPTION:Delegate Bonita Anthony and journalist Amanda Abrams discuss th
 e new uses and risks of AI in tenant screening — and policy solutions to
  protect renters’ rights — with HOME of VA executive director Thomas O
 kuda Fitzpatrick.\n\n\nRegister now!\n\nDuring her time in the House of De
 legates\, Bonita Anthony of Norfolk has made tenant protections a priority
 . She has championed bills to promote transparency in an industry that ope
 rates largely in the dark\, while also working to regulate high-risk AI. A
 nd she is building a robust housing agenda for 2027.\n\nJournalist Amanda 
 Abrams has written about AI and tenant screening for the housing publicati
 on Shelterforce. Her reporting reveals a quiet but profound shift: today\,
  it often isn't a landlord who decides if you can rent an apartment — it
 's an outside firm using AI.\n\nFor more than 50 years\, HOME of VA has be
 en on the front lines of fighting for your fair housing rights. As more vi
 olations move online\, we're building new strategies to protect vulnerable
  Virginians — and we'll explore with these two experts how to level up t
 hat work.\n\nThe evening will also include a short presentation from our p
 artners at New Virginia Majority and Legal Aid Society of Eastern Virginia
  on renters’ rights wins at the General Assembly this year\, and what's 
 ahead for 2027.\n\n&#x27a1\;&#xfe0f\; Don't miss it — register now!\n\n\
