<br />PURPOSE AND INTENT
<br />The City of South Bend, in creative and affirmative partnership with City residents, private enterprise,
<br />neighborhood and community organizations, and the Federal Government, is committed to the national
<br />objectives of "creating a suitable living environment, decent housing, and creating economic
<br />opportunities" for all persons. In attempting to achieve this objective, the City of South Bend has
<br />identified this project to address "creating a suitable living environment". Additionally, the City has
<br />determined that, for this project, there is a need to secure the services of an organization with special
<br />expertise. Therefore, program funds will be utilized through the South Bend Human Rights
<br />Commission for Affirmative Fair Housing Activities.
<br />TARGETED GOALS
<br />The South Bend Human Rights Commission will assist the City in the provision and promotion of fair
<br />housing, taking the necessary steps in identifying and elimination barriers to equal housing opportunities
<br />for all, regardless of race, religion, color, sex, national origin or ancestry, sexual orientation or gender
<br />identity, disability or familial status.. The targeted goals for the South Bend Human Rights Commission
<br />Affirmative Fair Housing Activities (19-JC-89) are:
<br />1) Investigation of housing complaints of discrimination filed with the South Bend Human
<br />Rights Commission; and
<br />2) Provision of promotional and educational workshops and public service announcements
<br />informing citizens of equal opportunity and fair housing law and the complaint / grievance
<br />process.
<br />If, for any reason, there is difficulty in achieving this goal, the Agency must notify the Department of
<br />Community Investment of the problem(s) so the matter(s) can be rectified in a timely manner.
