We need YOU… to become a Fair Housing Tester!
By becoming a volunteer fair housing tester, you can help us foster a north suburban housing market that’s open to people of all ages, abilities, races, religions, ethnicity and income levels.
Fair housing testers pose as home buyers or renters and report their observations. People of any racial or ethnic group and all physical abilities are encouraged to participate.
Here’s what’s in it for you:
• Fair housing training
• Stipend and travel reimbursement for each completed test
• Knowledge that you’ve helped make your community a more welcoming place.
To ask questions or register, contact Casey Wittekind at 847-501-5760, ext. 501.
