Report Housing Discrimination

Fill out the contact form below if you are in Cuyahoga or Lorain counties and need assistance because you are experiencing discrimination, require a disability-related accommodation or modification, or have another fair housing issue that may benefit from advocacy. Please note:

  • If you live outside of Cuyahoga and Lorain counties and require fair housing assistance, find your local fair housing center here. If you cannot find a fair housing center in your region, fill out this form instead.
  • We do not have any attorneys on staff, and cannot provide legal advice. If you have general questions about landlord/tenant law, you should reach out to Legal Aid’s tenant information line at 216-861-5955.
  • Our agency does not provide rental assistance, housing search support services, or emergency shelter; if you require these services, please dial 2-1-1 to get in touch with United Way’s First Call for Advocacy.
  • Please only submit this form once.
