Who We Are

Equal and Fair Housing in Virginia

In Virginia, one in eight households spends more than half of their income on housing. Because of increased housing costs and growing income inequality, everywhere you look – cities, towns, rural communities – the stability that home should bring remains out of reach for far too many families. Blue Ridge Habitat for Humanity knows that safe, decent and affordable housing solutions play a critical role in helping families create lives filled with possibility and progress. Many of our neighbors live with the constant burden of uncertainty, stress, and fear. That should not be – and it does not have to be. 

Equal housing opportunity for all persons, regardless of race, color, national origin, religion, age, sex, familial status, marital status, or disability, is a fundamental policy of Blue Ridge Habitat for Humanity. Blue Ridge Habitat for Humanity is committed to diligence in assuring equal housing opportunity and nondiscrimination to all aspects of its housing financing activities. Blue Ridge Habitat for Humanity has an ethical as well as legal imperative to work aggressively to ensure that Blue Ridge Habitat for Humanity financed housing programs comply fully with all state and federal fair housing and lending laws.
