HUD’s Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity (FHEO) now has a mobile application (app) for submitting a housing discrimination complaint. The app provides information about housing rights and enables someone to file a housing discrimination complaint to HUD. The app is for iPhone and iPad.
In conjunction with the fair housing mobile app, FHEO also has HTML 5-adaptive mobile pages that allow web content to be displayed regardless of the brand of smart phone or tablet. The mobile pages are in English and Spanish and allow individuals to complete and submit the fair housing complaint form in either language.
“Having this first fair housing mobile application equips people everywhere with the information they need to combat housing discrimination,” said John Trasviña, HUD Assistant Secretary for Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity. “We are maximizing the latest technology to make the process for filing fair housing complaints faster and easier and arming our fair housing partners with the information they need to understand their fair housing rights and responsibilities.”
