The Fair Housing Project (FHP) is a program of the Statewide Housing Services division of the Champlain Valley Office of Economic Opportunity (CVOEO), a non-profit community action agency. The FHP works to eradicate housing discrimination in Vermont through education, outreach, and enforcement of fair housing laws. The FHP assists victims of discrimination, investigates complaints, and works with attorneys to pursue litigation when necessary.

" HUD and its state and local partners under the Fair Housing Assistance Program (FHAP) received a combined 9,187 housing discrimination complaints, a 13 percent increase over the previous fiscal year." (Emphasis added) Excerpt from HUD's 2005 State of Fair Housing Report.
