Title
Fair Housing. It's not an option. It's the law.
Description
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) estimates that more than two million instances of housing discrimination occur annually, but in the year 2001, fewer than 24,000 complaints (1%) were filed.
While studies conducted in California and Texas reveal that Hispanics are discriminated against as much as 70 percent of the time in their search for housing, this is not reflected in the level of reported complaints.
The Fair Housing National Multimedia Campaign is designed to increase public awareness of the Fair Housing Act and its protections, encourage the reporting of fair housing discrimination to the appropriate agencies, and provide information and resources to help communities and institutions support individuals and families who exercise their fair housing rights.
