Who We Are
Mission: To actively support and promote freedom of residence through education, advocacy, and litigation, to the end that all persons have the opportunity to secure the housing they desire and can afford.
The Housing Rights Center (HRC) is the nation’s largest non-profit civil rights organization dedicated to securing and promoting Fair Housing. HRC was founded in 1968, the same year that Congress passed the Fair Housing Act.
What We Do
HRC provides residents within the Los Angeles and Ventura Counties with free (1) housing discrimination investigation, (2) fair housing enforcement (3) outreach and public education, and (4) landlord-tenant counseling. HRC is able to assist clients in several different languages including English, Spanish, Mandarin, Armenian, Russian, Cantonese, and American Sign Language (ASL). Individuals with hearing/speech impairments can be assisted through our TTY system.
