Create-a-Class

While we offer a wide range of routine classes and entertaining options such as the Fair Housing Jeopardy Game, we also invite you to create your own custom class!

The Create-a-Class sessions typically entail an advanced examination of fair housing laws tailored to the needs of your organization. All sessions begin with an overview of fair housing laws followed by your choice of the following in-depth subjects:

• creating family-friendly housing
• separating behavior from protected class status
• reviewing rules for compliance; beware of seemingly neutral rules that are discriminatory

May include small group discussion and scenario analysis as a model for real life problem solving. Q&A encouraged. View our current class list and scan the range of range of topics you might want to have covered at your staff meeting, trade association or membership meeting, etc. Mix and match to suit your needs!
