UPDATE: April is Fair Housing Month
April 2024 marks 56 years since the Civil Rights Act was signed into law. As champions of Fair Housing laws, NAR fights discrimination and promotes equality through several programs and initiatives.
Since 1998, more than 25,000 REALTORS® and association executives have completed the award-winning “At Home with Diversity” (AHWD) program. AHWD is an educational opportunity designed to present a picture of the changing face of the real estate industry to real estate brokers, agents, association executives, and anyone associated with the industry. The class teaches real estate professionals how they can increase their sensitivity and adaptability to future market trends.
Through NAR, members can sign up for the AHWD certification course this month. Please click here to register.
