Read a random definition: per modum justitiae

A quick definition of HUD:

The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is a government agency that helps people find affordable housing. They have many programs to help different groups of people, like seniors or low-income families, get the housing they need. HUD also makes sure that everyone is treated fairly when it comes to housing, and they enforce laws that protect people from discrimination. They are an important part of making sure everyone has a safe and comfortable place to live.

A more thorough explanation:

The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is a government agency that helps promote affordable housing for lower and middle-income families. They also enforce fair housing standards to prevent discrimination in housing. HUD manages many federal programs for housing and community development.

  • The Housing Choice Voucher Program (Section 8) helps low-income families pay for housing by providing vouchers that cover part of their rent.
  • The Community Development Block Grants (CDBG) provide funding to local governments to help improve their communities, such as building affordable housing or improving infrastructure.
  • The HOME Investment Partnership provides grants to states and local governments to create affordable housing for low-income families.
  • The Federal Housing Administration provides mortgage and loan insurance programs to help low-income individuals access housing loans.

These programs illustrate how HUD works to provide affordable housing and support community development. By providing funding and assistance to individuals and local governments, HUD helps ensure that everyone has access to safe and affordable housing.

In addition to these programs, HUD also enforces fair housing laws to prevent discrimination in housing. This includes investigating complaints of discrimination and taking legal action against violators. By enforcing these laws, HUD helps ensure that everyone has equal access to housing, regardless of their race, gender, or other characteristics.

im distracting myself by schizo-scrolling r/lawschoolamissions and every conceivable data point on this godforsaken website
it is not working
Haaa I naturally want to do that too. I’m trying to stop. They need a surgeon general’s warning on this site for perspective law students
i spend more time on here then anything else trying to rationalize that the waves from last year will match waves for this year (they won't) and that the stats of people with the same stats are indicative of my own (they aren't)
There aren't many people in my stat range so I pretty much know every result in my range after being on here for a few years
