Join a virtual training focused on “Source of Income” (SOI) protections for renters who rely on Housing Choice Vouchers and other lawful forms of non-wage income to secure housing.

In Ohio, source of income is not currently protected under state fair housing law, leaving renters subject to a patchwork of local ordinances that vary significantly by jurisdiction. The discussion will examine how this uneven legal landscape affects housing access across the state, particularly for voucher holders, families with children, older adults, and people with disabilities, and will highlight the growing number of Ohio municipalities that have adopted local SOI protections in response to persistent barriers in the private rental market. The webinar will also explore recent constitutional challenges to SOI protections and how municipalities and courts have been addressing those challenges.
