The Village of Hoffman Estates abides by the Fair Housing Act (Title VIII of the Civil Rights Act of 1968) and upholds the right to equal opportunity and non-discriminatory housing practices. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development requires that the Village takes steps to affirmatively further fair housing. Please find a list of resources below:

The Illinois Department of Human Rights has information about discriminatory housing practices and how to file a claim for investigation. You may also call 312-814-6229 to connect with the Fair Housing Intake Investigator.

If you feel your housing concern is a local issue, please contact our Fair Housing Liaison, Dr. Monica Saavedra, Hoffman Estates Director of Health and Human Services: 847-781-4850.

The Village has assembled an Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing and is currently addressing ways to reduce fair housing concerns. For more information about the analysis, please contact planning@hoffmanestates.org.
