Connecticut Fair Housing Center

The mission of the Connecticut Fair Housing Center is to ensure that all people have equal access to housing opportunities in Connecticut. Because Connecticut’s low-income residents are particularly affected by discriminatory housing practices, the Center devotes its scarce resources principally to assisting Connecticut’s low-income residents.  In addition, communities of color have been particularly devastated by the foreclosure crisis. The continued instability that communities of color face in the housing market is particularly troubling because housing and home ownership is the best way for these communities to build their wealth and assets.
