Know Your Rights: HIV and Housing, The Center for HIV Law and Policy (2010)
This brief front-and-back handout provides an overview of the rights of people living with HIV to obtain housing without discrimination under federal law, and to housing assistance under federally funded programs. Safe, stable, and affordable housing is not only a basic human right, but vital to the survival of people living with HIV. Advocates and people living with HIV who seek a deeper discussion of the legal issues that arise with regard to HIV and housing should also consult the Center for HIV Law and Policy's primer The Housing Rights of People Living with HIV/AIDS.
