This area of CRC's work prevents and ameliorates the affects of discrimination in our community. CRC accepts formal complaints from citizens who feel that they have been discriminated against in a public place or in housing because of their race, color, religion, national origin, gender, family status, or disability.
CRC staff members document and investigate citizens' complaints and conduct standardized testing of alleged violators' facilities. CRC also provides citizens with referrals to the Advocacy Council for People with Disabilities, which advises local government officials about accommodations in programs, services and facilities.
These intake, investigation, enforcement, education and outreach services are provided in conjunction with the Federal Fair Housing Assistance Program and the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
For more information, call (704) 336-5160.
