Housing
The Fair Housing Center of Southwest Michigan is committed to eliminating all forms of housing discrimination in Southwest Michigan through fair housing education, enforcement and advocacy. Fair housing rights are assured by federal, state and local fair housing laws. These laws prohibit housing discrimination on the basis of specific “protected classes”, which include race, color, religion, national origin, gender, familial status, disability, marital status, and age, among others protected by local laws. In particular, the federal Fair Housing Act, the Michigan Elliott-Larsen Civil Rights Act, and local fair housing ordinances provide the basis for fair housing protection throughout West Michigan.
