On Tuesday, April 16 the Charles County Commissioners issued proclamation #2013-22 designating April as Fair Housing Month in Charles County.

The 1968 Fair Housing Act guarantees the right of all Americans to dwell in the neighborhood of their choice.

Even though this non-discriminatory policy is the law of the land, its proper enforcement requires the continued cooperation of all levels of government, the real estate and home building industries, and private citizens.ย
