Please join us for fair housing tester training!

The Fair Housing Center of Metropolitan Detroit is a non-profit civil rights organization dedicated to promoting equal opportunity in housing in Detroit and throughout the surrounding Detroit Tri-Counties of Wayne, Oakland, and Macomb.

The Fair Housing Center is dedicated to the eliminating housing discrimination, promoting open, accessible, and inclusive communities, and strengthening enforcement of fair housing laws. The Center provides counseling, investigative assistance (testing), and legal referrals to assist victims of housing discrimination, conducts pro-active investigations to identify and challenge discriminatory housing practices, and advocates policies that reduce segregation and poverty concentration throughout the region. The Center works to expand housing choice and increase opportunities for all populations, including groups that have been historically marginalized, discriminated against, or excluded.

The Fair Housing Center recruits individuals to work as part-time testers. Fair housing laws protect everyone from unlawful housing discrimination. For this reason, the Fair Housing Center developed a large and diverse pool of trained and experienced testers who can be utilized in many types of fair housing testing investigations. To promote equitable housing, the Fair Housing Center uses testing to investigate housing practices and aid with the enforcement of federal, state, and local fair housing laws.
