Fair Housing Rights
& the Fair Housing Act of 1968
The Fair Housing Act of 1968 protects people from housing discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability, or family status.
Charleston Urban League helps Charleston Lowcountry residents understand these rights and access guidance when unfair or discriminatory housing practices occur.
Everyone deserves equal access to housing—without discrimination.
Passed in 1968, the Fair Housing Act ensures that individuals and families are protected from discrimination in renting, buying, financing, or living in their homes.
Charleston Urban League provides education, support, and referrals to help residents identify unfair housing practices, understand their options, and take informed action when rights are violated.
