Housing

And our rights are unequivocally critical to survival.

A federal district court judge today ruled that a Boulder County property owner violated both the federal Fair Housing Act and the Colorado Anti-Discrimination Act when she refused to rent a housing unit to Lambda Legal clients Rachel and Tonya Smith, a same-sex couple, one of whom is transgender, and their children, because she worried their “uniqueness” would jeopardize her standing in the community.

After the death of my partner, my children and I have been discussing moving me into a housing community for older adults, hopefully one that will also provide assisted living and long term care if I need it someday.
