Fair Housing Council

A Fair Housing Council is an organization that works to ensure everyone has equal access to housing opportunities by preventing discrimination. They educate the public and housing professionals about fair housing laws and may offer assistance if someone faces unfair treatment based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, disability, or family status. These councils promote fair and inclusive housing practices, advocate for tenants and buyers, and sometimes address violations through mediation or legal action, helping create more equitable and diverse communities.
