Families with children are also protected from discrimination in the use of housing facilities, including swimming pools, fitness centers, clubhouses, courtyards or other outdoor areas. Rules that apply only to families with children are often interpreted as discriminatory. However, rules and regulations can be allowed that uphold the health and safety of children in housing facilities.
If you live in Philadelphia, Southeast Pennsylvania or the Lehigh Valley and have questions about familial status discrimination in housing, contact info@equalhousing.org, 866-540-FAIR or contact us.
