Housing discrimination remains a critical issue across America, and this April, Dallas residents have multiple opportunities to learn about their rights and protections under fair housing laws. The City of Dallas is taking proactive steps to educate community members through a series of accessible neighborhood events marking Fair Housing Month, which commemorates the historic 1968 Fair Housing Act.
