Long Island Housing Services (LIHS) sponsored a Fair Housing Accessibility Training on May 3 & 4, 2006 had a huge turnout at this informative seminar.

The first was a full day with 4 independent workshops. Continental breakfast, 1st class trainers, instructional materials and lunch offered  no charge. Training sessions were appropriate for fair housing advocates, all housing, disability and other service providers, real estate agents, community development grantees, attorneys, architects, developers, planners, sponsors of housing, fair housing advocates and government officials. The course was HUD-approved and has been accredited by the American Institute of Architects. Application for up to 4 credit hours of Continuing Legal Education (CLE) credits for Attorneys is pending with NYS CLE Board. Instruction will serve beginners and advanced practitioners on general and specific fair housing and disability issues; the second (1/2 day) session provided more industry-specific technical instruction.
