Fair Housing

Fair Housing NYC is a joint website of HPD and the NYC Commission on Human Rights (CCHR), which helps explain your rights and responsibilities as tenants, homeowners, landlords, and building owners.

The NYC Human Rights Law protects residents and applicants of most types of housing in New York City against discrimination. HPD and CCHR are charged with providing and protecting fair housing in the City of New York.
