Outreach
Programs
The FHCS Educational Outreach Program is part of an ongoing effort to instruct the general public on fair housing laws and practices, and to inform the community of our activities and services. We engage landlords, realtors, and other housing providers as well as tenants, homeowners, and home-buyers through presentations, workshops, classes, and clinics.
Visit Our Events page for upcoming educational events. Follow us on social media to receive notifications of upcoming events.

Fair Housing Contact Service offers various educational services regarding fair housing, including free workshops for tenants and landlords. Our counselors are also available to answer your fair housing questions.
Engaging Community Agencies
FHCS attends many community functions and its staff members serve on numerous local committees. Local service agencies are contacted regularly through mutual referrals regarding client needs. Efforts are made to interest local journalists in reports and stories about FHCS activities and client situations. Corporate and community agencies are knit into the outreach network to ensure a wider spread of knowledge and service dissemination.
Fair Housing Contact Service provides community members with information and resources concerning their housing. The information provided on this page is intended to be used for general information regarding your rights and responsibilities as a resident, housing provider, and/or community member under the Ohio landlord tenant laws and all applicable fair housing laws. We are not attorneys. This information should not be taken as legal advice, but it may help you decide if and when you should pursue legal assistance. Be sure to contact an attorney before taking any court action.
Education Through In-House Services
FHCS integrates its education efforts into all of its programs. At each stage of a fair housing or tenant/landlord contact, whether it be over the phone or face-to-face, FHCS strives to explain the rights and obligations of the parties involved. These attempts at educating the public are at the frontline of our educational efforts.
FHCS also conducts regional public speaking engagements and seminars on fair housing. While seminars are often solicited by FHCS, they may also be scheduled by request. Contact us for details.

Public Awareness Advertising
