An entity shall include in its affirmative fair housing marketing plan a carefully documented assessment of the groups that are least likely to apply and a clearly articulated affirmative marketing policy and effort to disseminate information to those groups, including a determination of whether translation of materials into language or languages other than English is necessary. An entity’s marketing efforts shall include a HUD-approved fair housing logo, slogan or statement and all advertising depicting persons shall depict persons of diverse demographic groups.

(3) Instruct all employees and agents of the entity, in writing and orally, of the entity’s policy of nondiscrimination and fair housing with respect to all applicable state, federal and local fair housing laws and regulations.

(4) Consider the application of any eligible buyers, tenants, applicants, or participants who the housing agency has referred to the entity.

(5) Prominently display, in all offices in which sale, rental, or administrative activity pertaining to housing opportunities occurs, a fair housing poster approved by the Commission on Human Rights and Opportunities that includes reference to protected classes under Connecticut law, and include the HUD-approved fair housing logo, slogan or statement in any printed material the entity uses in connection with sales, rentals, and participation in programs administered by the entity.
