Event Details

CTAA welcomes CHRO's Training team to teach a 2 hour class in housing discrimination and fair housing issues. 

Join us for an informative Fair Housing training presented by representatives from the Connecticut Commission on Human Rights and Opportunities (CHRO). This session will provide a practical overview of fair housing laws, protected classes, and the responsibilities of housing providers to ensure compliance and equal access to housing.

Participants will gain a better understanding of how to recognize and prevent discrimination, handle reasonable accommodation and modification requests, and apply fair housing principles in day-to-day property management operations. This training is ideal for property owners, managers, and leasing professionals who want to strengthen their knowledge, reduce risk, and promote inclusive communities.

Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions and learn directly from CHRO experts about real-world scenarios and best practices.
