HSO FAIR HOUSING In April, we come together as a community and a nation to

celebrate the anniversary of the passing of the Fair Housing

Act (Title VIII Of the Civil Rights Act of 1968). The Act

eliminates housing discrimination and creates equal

opportunity in housing for every community

Sponsored by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban

Development (HUD), the campaign includes efforts to end

housing discrimination and raise awareness of fair housing

rights in communities across the country

The prohibitions specifically covers discrimination in housing

because of race, color, national origin, religion, sex, disability

and the presence of children, also known as protected classes

9

HSO FAIR HOUSING HUD investigates complaints of housing discrimination based

on race, color, religion, national origin, sex, disability, or familial

status

The categories with the highest number of complaints were

disability and race

Increased instances of discrimination faced by women,

members of the LGBT community and families with children

In 2016 HUD received 8,289 complaints

HUD and US Department of Justice (DOJ) reached

agreements or settlements with over 40 property owners

ranging from 100K to1M dollars awarded to complainants

.
