Fair Housing
NCRC’s Fair Housing program conducts testing and investigations, pursues independent enforcement actions, provides training and produces analysis to ensure equitable access to affordable housing choices.
Our fair housing team also works closely with NCRC members and our policy and government relations teams to advance policies that make fair housing a national priority and a local reality.
The Fair Housing Act prohibits housing discrimination in residential housing transactions (rental, real estate sales, lending, insurance, and appraisal) on the basis of race, color, national origin, religion, gender, disability or familial status (related to persons under 18 or pregnant women).
