About Fair Housing

Fair housing is the right of all individuals to have equal access to housing opportunities, regardless of race, color, national origin, religion, sex (including gender identity and sexual orientation), familial status, or disability. The Fair Housing Act, enacted in 1968 and amended over the years, prohibits discrimination in the sale, rental, and financing of housing. This landmark legislation ensures that every person has the opportunity to live where they choose and build wealth through homeownership.

The Fair Housing Expo 2025 supports this mission by educating the public on their rights, connecting individuals with resources, and empowering communities through housing stability and financial literacy.
