With forming communities wanting to be as diverse as possible, the topic of Housing Segregation and its Impact on Cohousing couldn’t be more important. Crystal’s recent WebChat describes the history of segregated housing in America, the ways in which federal policy created and maintained segregation, and the ongoing impact of those policies and ongoing racist practices still today.

There are many reasons to strive for diversity in our communities, including racial diversity, and just as many reasons that this can be a challenge, especially for those who don’t understand the history or don’t see the ongoing impacts. Crystals’ WebChat is a great beginning in understanding segregation in housing and the factors a community must address in its journey to diversity.
