ABOUT LISA RICE

Where you live affects everything about you. Your address impacts how long you will live, how healthy you are, whether your children will graduate from high school or attend college, whether you will be arrested or convicted of a crime, your credit score, your homeownership status, how much money you will make in your lifetime, and so much more! In the United States, Place is tied to Opportunity. My job is to ensure that every neighborhood, every community has the amenities and resources it needs to foster healthy and successful children, families and people. As Executive Vice President of the National Fair Housing Alliance, I work to enforce and advance our nation\'s fair housing laws, reduce illegal housing discrimination and expand equal housing opportunities. I do this because when we make every Neighborhood a Place of Opportunity, our communities win, our cities win, our nation wins. We all win! NFHA is the voice of Fair Housing. We are the nation\'s only non-profit, national civil rights trade association working to ensure that everyone has equal housing opportunities. We achieve our mission through leadership, education, community development, outreach, membership services, public policy, advocacy, and enforcement.
