We’re thrilled to announce that Melvin J. Kelley IV will close Housing Washington 2026 with a powerful, future‑focused conversation on justice, policy, and the systems that influence
access to opportunity — themes at the heart of Washington’s housing landscape.
Professor Kelley is one of the nation’s leading voices on civil rights, housing law, and community economic development. His research examines how public authority, real estate practices,
and regional systems shape access to opportunity — insights that resonate deeply with our shared commitment to equitable housing across Washington.
Make plans to join this dynamic closing plenary on Thursday, October 22 — and leave inspired to think boldly about what comes next for fair housing and community development.
Registration opens in early June — and we can’t wait to welcome you.
