Learn how the Fair Housing Act protects your rights to ask for disability related accommodations and modifications in your housing.
About this Event
Fair Housing means it's illegal to discriminate in housing based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, disability status, or because you have children. Additional North Dakota protections include age (over 40), marital status, and receipt of public assistance.
Join us as we explore your rights as a prospective buyer, renter, or current tenant in housing. It is illegal to be offered different terms and conditions or availability in your housing because you have a disability, to be harassed based on your disability, or be treated differently than persons without a disability. In addition, persons with a disability are allowed reasonable accommodations and/or modifications in their housing so that they may use and enjoy their housing equally.
Join us to learn more about what housing discrimination looks like against persons with disabilities, your rights to ask for and receive a disability related accommodation or modification in your housing, and what to do if you are denied equal access to your living situation because you have a disability.
