ADVOCACY

The Oak Park Regional Housing Center promotes fair housing and provides educational and analytical services to local municipalities and agencies, providing practical solutions for combating housing discrimination. These services include:

  • Preliminary Local Fair Housing Reports
  • Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Report
  • Fair Housing Ordinances
  • Fair Housing Action Plans

We work with local agencies to coordinate a multifaceted effort to promote and sustain diverse communities. Most recently, OPRHC has launched a targeted effort to research fair housing policy, share our findings with other municipalities, and create a universal, “best practices” guide, so all communities can experience the benefits of inclusion and integration.

If you think you’ve been discouraged from or denied the housing of your choice, you can contact the Oak Park Regional Housing Center by calling (708) 848-7150 for information and assistance.
