FAIR HOUSING MONTH 2023
This year, we commemorate the 55th anniversary of the passage of the Fair Housing Act, the landmark civil rights law signed into law on April 11, 1968, that made discrimination in housing transactions unlawful. We will be participating in and hosting events throughout April to celebrate and spread awareness about fair housing.
