HOME was contacted by a disabled vet who was looking for housing and had gone to view a unit on the third floor. There, he was told he could not rent the unit because he was a fall risk due to his use of a walker.

HOME's Assistant Director began an investigation and found clear evidence of discrimination. HOME assisted the client in filing an administrative complaint against the housing provider that went to the Attorney General's office, and HOME provided the client a private attorney to represent them in this case. Through the settlement agreement, the owner agreed to pay monetary damages and two hours of Fair Housing Training.

"Following a federal district court order blocking the changes, the lawmakers are calling on Secretary Turner to comply with the court’s order, rescind HUD’s FY 2025 and FY 2026 FHIP funding notices, and ensure nonprofit fair housing organizations remain eligible for funding."

When a housing provider asked tenants using Housing Choice Vouchers to leave within 30 days, many disabled tenants living in modified units faced significant barriers to finding suitable housing. After tenants requested additional time as a reasonable accommodation and were denied, HOME began an investigation, which found the provider lacked a reasonable accommodation policy and that leasing staff were not properly trained.

HOME’s advocacy led to meaningful change: evictions were dismissed, tenants received additional time to find suitable housing and monetary damages, and the provider agreed to create and distribute a reasonable accommodation policy.
