Fair housing issues can seem very abstract. This session will focus on critical fair housing litigation risks for your community’s operations including marketing strategies, transferring to higher levels of care, and discharge or eviction actions. During the education, current fair housing laws will be reviewed along with examples of recent cases. Additionally, presenters will demonstrate examples of the issues presented based upon real life situations that providers face every day.

Objectives

• Identify what types of inquiries are allowable and prohibited under the Fair Housing Act.
• Audit marketing materials and practices to determine possible liability concerns with the Fair Housing Act.
• Strategize how to train marketing staff on presenting community information in a consistent manner in compliance with the Fair Housing Act.
