<br />neighborhood and community organizations, and the Federal Government, is committed to the national
<br />objectives of "creating a suitable living environment, decent housing, and creating economic
<br />opportunities" for all persons. In attempting to achieve this objective, the City of South Bend has

<br />expertise. Therefore, program funds will be utilized through the South Bend Human Rights
<br />Commission for Affirmative Fair Housing Activities.

<br />identity, disability or familial status.. The targeted goals for the South Bend Human Rights Commission
<br />Affirmative Fair Housing Activities (18-JC-89) are:

<br />Rights Commission; and
<br />2) Provision of promotional and educational workshops and public service announcements
<br />informing citizens of equal opportunity and fair housing law and the complaint / grievance
