Under the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs’ (TDHCA) Housing Tax Credit Program Qualified Allocation Plan and Rules, the owner and the architect for all awarded developments must attend fair housing training.
The training is intended to provide the owner and architect with information on both the design aspects of developing rental housing that is consistent with fair housing, as well as, occupancy and leasing issues. TDHCA also encourages awardees of all rental housing funds to attend these trainings.
While TDHCA does not offer the training, it does provide a listing of approved fair housing training providers–one of which is the Fair Housing Council of South Texas. However, please note that our organization is approved to provide this mandatory fair housing training for property owners and managers only.
