Fair Housing Education Day!

HUD celebrated their first ever "Fair Housing in America Day" on Wednesday, April 16th. Talk about it's never too early to start learning something new, this national education outreach program was designed to teach 4th through 6th grade students (including their teachers and parents) about the Fair Housing Act.

Now the more I think about this, I'm not so sure how I feel about it. On the one hand it's a pretty neat concept (the teachers and parents will be learning something too). On the other hand, I feel like we're spamming our 4th, 5th and 6th graders at too early an age. 

What do you think?

From the press release:

'"The goal of ‘Fair Housing Education in America Day’ is to start the conversation about fair housing opportunities at a young age,' said Kim Kendrick, HUD’s Assistant Secretary for Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity. 'It’s critically important to teach future generations of renters and home buyers about their rights under the law.'"

And if this isn't education at an early-enough age, REALTOR® Sarah Bandy introduces us to the newest, hot young talent to hit Keller Williams!
