Fair Housing - It's Your Right

What you need to know about the housing discrimination complaint process.


Federal law prohibits housing discrimination based on your race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status, or disability. If you have been trying to buy or rent a home or apartment and you believe your rights have been violated, you can file your fair housing complaint online.

Privacy Statement: The information requested in this form will be used to investigate and process housing discrimination complaints. It may be disclosed to the U.S. Department of Justice for its use in the filing of pattern and practice suits of housing discrimination or the prosecution of the person(s) who committed the discrimination where violence is involved; and to State or local fair housing agencies that administer substantially equivalent fair housing laws for complaint processing. Though disclosure of the information is voluntary, failure to provide some or all of the requested information will result in the delay or denial of help with your housing discrimination complaint.
