It is one of the oldest Fair Housing Councils in the nation. The Council was established by a group of citizens who sought to further the American ideal of making one strong and united people out of the many diverse nationalities, races and cultures in the country, while celebrating the unique contributions of each. The Council's many years of working with the residents of the San Fernando Valley, the Police, Federal Bureau of Investigation, the San Fernando Valley Board of Realtors, Los Angeles City Council officials, the Apartment Association and State and Federal enforcement agencies has largely rid our community of violence and vandalism. However, incidents of refusal to accept qualified would-be home purchasers or renters because of their race, color, creed, national origin, etc., still happen all too frequently today. Community means a shared place.
People are the rainbows in our neighborhoods.
