Join us on April 13th, 2024 for an impactful symposium uniting professionals dedicated to upholding the integrity of fair housing, lending, and valuation practices. This gathering extends a warm welcome to representatives from various backgrounds, including consumers directly impacted by the efficacy of these processes.

The Symposium serves as an inclusive platform, inviting all who are passionate about equity and inclusion to engage in open, honest, and constructive dialogue. With the theme "Pragmatic Solutions and Tools to Access Equity and Economic Opportunities in Housing and Lending," this event is specifically designed for parties interested in a solution-driven equity inclusion forum.

Our goal is not just to discuss the pressing issues but to actively pursue practical resolutions. This event is a unique opportunity for stakeholders—appraisers, lenders, housing advocates, policymakers, small business owners and concerned consumers—to convene and collectively address the systemic challenges faced in the realms of fair housing, lending practices, and valuation integrity.

Through interactive sessions, workshops, and collaborative discussions, participants will have the chance to delve into critical topics:

Examining current obstacles and biases within the regional housing, lending, and valuation sectors and facilitate the opening and expansion of business capital channels

Identifying strategies to enhance inclusivity and eliminate discriminatory practices and grow Minority Depository Institutions (MDI's). 

Exploring innovative approaches to ensure fair and accurate valuations for diverse communities allowing capital to breed, and enhance new markets. 

Sharing experiences and perspectives to foster a deeper understanding of the challenges faced by consumers and professionals alike.

This symposium isn't solely about conversation; it's a commitment to actionable outcomes. Attendees will actively contribute to drafting pragmatic solutions and actionable steps to drive positive change.

By fostering an environment of openness, transparency, and collaboration, this symposium aims to pave the way for tangible regional progress in creating, impartial inclusive, housing, lending, and valuation models.

We invite you to be a part of this transformative event, where diverse voices converge to shape a future marked by integrity, fairness, and equitable opportunities for all.
