Fair Housing Initiative
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) designates April as National Fair Housing month. April 2018 marks the Fiftieth Anniversary of the Fair Housing Act, which prohibits discrimination in housing. The Fair Housing Act was signed into law by President Lyndon B. Johnson on April 11, 1968 prohibiting discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status and national origin. The City of Greenville and the Greenville Area Property Managers Association will sponsor their annual fair housing seminar on Tuesday, April 24th at the Hilton.
Phillip A. Jordan III, J.D., Program Manager for the North Carolina Human Relations Commission/Civil Rights Division of Raleigh, North Carolina will present a discussion on Fair Housing: Reasonable Accommodations and Modifications for people with disabilities. Chris Loebsack, Managing Principal of Loebsack & Brownlee, PLLC of Charlotte, North Carolina will present a discussion on Fair Housing: Hot Topics and Recent Developments.
This seminar is free to our partners (GAMPA members, City of Greenville Senior Management Team, elected officials, and HUD representatives). If you or your agency/organization is not listed, there is a $20 for the seminar. Registration is required.
