It's Fair Housing Month: Test Your Knowledge Of Fair Housing Law

In honor of Fair Housing Month, this month's issue will give you a chance to test your knowledge of fair housing law.

The law also bans more subtle forms of discrimination, which may not seem to be overtly discriminatory, but have an unfair impact on some prospects or applicants with a protected characteristic.
