On September 15, 2026, the Fair Housing Justice Center (FHJC) will host a free webinar on accessible design and construction. The webinar, Accessible Housing: A Civil Right, is designed to increase awareness of federal accessibility laws and regulations, and to help ensure that new buildings are correctly designed and constructed right from the start. Attorney Scott Moore, a longtime friend of the FHJC and a nationally recognized legal expert on design and construction requirements, will be returning as an instructor. He will be joined by architects John Torkelson (Founder) and Rex Pace of The Access Partnership LP, one of the premier architectural accessibility consulting firms in the nation. Together, the instructors will provide detailed and reliable information about federal fair housing accessibility requirements under the Fair Housing Act, Section 504 (Rehabilitation Act of 1973), and the Americans with Disabilities Act. The webinar will take place on September 15, 1-4 PM ET. It is free to attend, but pre-registration is required. Visit bit.ly/FHJCWebinarSep15 to register.
