Overview
The CRD Training Team’s focuses on informing the public and housing providers of their rights under Fair Housing law. We strive to educate on discriminatory and harassing behaviors so everyone can enjoy their home. The Civil Rights Division offers a variety of comprehensive, interactive presentations and training programs to provide housing providers and consumers with a practical understanding of the U.S. and Texas Fair Housing Acts and rules and how to comply.
