It has come to our attention that unauthorized housing companies have been contacting DTECH® attendees via email and phone and in general, misrepresenting themselves as an official housing vendor for DTECH®.

The only official housing company for DTECH® is Connections Housing.  All other companies do not have any affiliation with DTECH®.  We highly caution you from engaging unauthorized companies because if/when issues arise, DTECH® management does not have the ability to provide assistance in solving them. 

Please report any unauthorized housing and travel solicitations to Maliah Vivanco.

Clarion here with a friendly reminder to always remain vigilant in relation to any change of beneficiary requests when processing payments to us.  Bad actors frequently target small businesses and use a variety of tactics, including typosquatting, in an attempt to appear more convincing.  If you ever have any questions related to payment, changes in instructions from Clarion, or anything else, please always give us a call prior to issuing payment.
