friday, february 4

​[free - ONE HOUR GENERAL CLE CREDIT]

Join fair housing attorneys from Prairie State Legal Services as they discuss how fair housing protections and obligations could deepen your expertise as you practice landlord/tenant, real estate, and local government law.

This program offers one hour of general MCLE credit.
