The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has announced its intention to update its existing Section 504 rules in response to emerging issues. They are seeking feedback on various aspects of the current rules and their potential revisions. This includes inquiries about whether changes are needed in the definition of "individual with disabilities," the sufficiency of the current new construction rules (mandating 5% mobility-accessible and 2% visual and hearing accessible units) for addressing the needs of people with disabilities, and whether the accessibility requirements of individuals receiving housing choice vouchers and tenant-based assistance are currently being adequately fulfilled.

This webinar by industry expert Paul Flogstad will cover many of these proposed rule changes. These include:

  • Revisions to the definition of “individuals with disabilities” to be consistent with the ADA Amendment Acts of 2008 and DOJ’s Title II ADA regulations.
  • Examples of direct and indirect discrimination against those with mental or physical disabilities in securing affordable housing.
  • Auxiliary Aids and Services in Housing and Community Development Programs and Activities. Revisions to the definition of “individuals with disabilities” to be consistent with the ADA Amendment Acts of 2008 and DOJ’s Title II ADA regulations 504
