HUD announces new rules for homeless shelters

The Department of Housing and Urban Development on Friday announced single-sex homeless shelters that receive federal funding must provide access to anyone, regardless of their gender identity and expression. The rule the agency posted to its website also bans facilities and other entities that receive HUD funding and lenders who participate in the Federal Housing Administration's mortgage insurance program "from inquiring about [the] sexual orientation or gender identity to determine eligibility for HUD-assisted or HUD-insured housing."
