Скачать или смотреть Atheist Community of San Jose - Zoe Brown - Protecting Atheists with Fair Housing Laws

Zoe Brown contacted the ACSJ last month to alert us of a local landlord who was discriminating against applicants who were non-religious. She has agreed to inform our members about rights and local housing laws in order to protect ourselves from this kind of discrimination in the future.

During her presentation, Zoe will cover an overview of all the protected categories under the fair housing laws, with an emphasis on particular protected categories that are most pertinent to the ACSJ. Zoe will also spend time talking about the local case that prompted her reaching out to the ACSJ. In addition to going over the groups that are protected under the fair housing laws, she will discuss how Project Sentinel investigates claims of housing discrimination, and what types of enforcement they help individuals seek.

This is a great opportunity to understand your rights.

This is a free event. We hope to see you there!
