During this very active year of increased funding for fair housing advocacy groups, increased testing, large penalty awards, court decisions favouring tenants and new legislation affecting fair housing compliance, it was hard for some of us to pause and take stock of the changes and how they inform our operations.

Depending on what market you operate in, your compliance efforts may be impacted by the tens of millions of dollars going to fair housing advocacy groups for testing and “education”, additional protected classes, fair chance legislation and a general feeling of being under attack!

During this session our expert speaker will look at some outrageous fair housing violations (and penalties) and wade into some of the new laws about falsifying assistive animals status and not being able to check criminal backgrounds. We’ll also look at what 2024 might bring for fair housing compliance changes.
