Fair Housing Board
The Fair Housing Board is a resource to help you understand the federal, state, and local laws as they pertain to fair housing. The Board is made up of seven citizens appointed by City Council whose mission it is to educate and expand the knowledge, understanding, and aspirations of all Roanoke citizens to receive fair and equal housing choices. This is accomplished through various outreach and educational opportunities that bring awareness to national, state, and local fair housing laws. The laws prohibiting housing discrimination are based on the following:
- Race
- Color
- National Origin
- Sex
- Disability
- Familial Status (families with children under age 18)
- Elderliness (age 55 or older)
- Source of Funds
- Sexual Orientation
- Gender Identity
- Veteran Status
