Development of case studies for use in training of employees in the multifamily housing industry to prevent fair haousing violations

Abstract

This creative project involved the development of a series of case studies in response to the 4 million plus fair housing violations that occur every year. The seven case studies developed were based on actual court cases involving the seven areas of fair housing violations. It is known that the use of case studies in training can be better remembered and more helpful than just explaining the rules. Through this project the researcher hopes to raise awareness of and help prevent these infractions from happening, thus saving undue duress and expense to a property management company.
