Course Description
The Fair Housing Act protects people with disabilities from discrimination in housing. But what does that mean? In what ways does the Act do so? What must housing providers know? This course will answer those questions. It will utilize hypothetical scenarios to highlight important topics including reasonable accommodations, reasonable modifications, and assistance animals.
Learning objectives:
- How the fair housing protections for people with disabilities differ from the protections afforded to other protected classes
- How reasonable accommodations work
- How reasonable modifications work
- The current law concerning assistance animals in housing, including a new Illinois statute that became effective in January 2020
