In 2022, the GAAR Board of Directors took the first steps in joining the National Association of REALTORS® in providing guidance and support to diversity initiatives to create cultural shifts and increase a sense of belonging among members at GAAR and our community to reduce barriers to home ownership.
Fair Housing is a law that protects people from discrimination in housing-related activities, such as buying or renting a home, getting a mortgage, or seeking housing assistance.

The ABCD Committee will participate in events throughout the year to meet the community and advance the dialogue around the path to home ownership.
Three times a year, the ABCD Committee hosts a monthly First-Wednesday event. These events are to advance our association, foster membership belonging, and celebrate diversity.
