Housing discrimination occurs when someone treats you unfairly because of your protected class in the rental, sale, insuring, or financing of a home. Protected classes include race, color, national origin, religion, sex, disability, familial status, military status (state protection), and sexual orientation (local protection). All who seek housing should have an equal opportunity to rent, purchase, finance, or insure the property they choose.ProtectThe Fair Housing Center is here to ensure all people have the same access to opportunities. Being treated in a discriminatory manner is unjust and unlawful. If you feel that you have been treated unfairly we will actively listen to your complaint. When necessary, we can investigate and pursue enforcement action.AdvocateIf your rights have been violated, we will be your number one supporter. Persons who experience discrimination are often confused and frustrated, and we are here to help every step of the way. No one should feel like they are alone in the fight for justice, and The Fair Housing Center will provide resources to empower you.EducateThe Fair Housing Center understands that some people may not be aware of the fair housing laws or how to identify discriminatory practices. To share this information with the public and housing professionals, we distribute materials, offer trainings, host outreach events, and much more.
