“I am honored to join the team at The Fair Housing Center,”
stated Flannery. “I believe passionately in the principles
of equity and fairness, and look forward to working with the
residents, stakeholders, and community development
professionals in Toledo and the surrounding areas to further
The Fair Housing Center’s mission of eliminating housing
discrimination and creating communities of opportunity for
all.”
The Fair Housing Center engaged a consultant to assist the
Board with strategic planning and facilitate the national
search.
“Ms. Flannery was chosen from a pool of very talented
candidates,” stated Alan Sattler, board chairman of The Fair
Housing Center. “We were impressed by not only her extensive
experience and knowledge of fair housing, but her commitment
to the values of equality and justice upon which fair
housing was founded. The Fair Housing Center has played an
important role in the fair housing movement, setting
precedents that have opened doors to opportunity for
millions across our country. With our strategic plan and a
strong leader who brings a fresh perspective to the table,
we will continue to be a leader in fostering a more diverse,
vibrant community.”
The community is invited to join The Fair Housing Center in
welcoming Flannery, who will be available to connect with
community partners and local media when she’s fully on board
in November.
