Fair Housing Accessibility Guidelines

The Fair Housing Accessibility Guidelines are rules to ensure that housing built or renovated with federal assistance is accessible to people with disabilities. They specify standards for features like doorways, kitchens, bathrooms, and pathways to make sure that individuals with mobility challenges can comfortably access and use the home. These guidelines aim to promote equal housing opportunities by encouraging design practices that accommodate everyone’s needs, fostering independence and inclusion for people with disabilities within the housing environment.
