Counseling
The Counseling Program of the Fair Housing Center of Central Indiana provides housing counseling and referrals to individual housing consumers and housing providers. The FHCCI connects people with resources to help them locate housing options; to stave off eviction, foreclosure, or instability; to identify or access available housing programs; and to combat or address conflicts or inequities with their housing providers and/or housing services.

The FHCCI believes that knowledge is power. If you have a question on a housing issue, contact the FHCCI at 317-644-0673 or email us at info@fhcci.org.
We are not attorneys and cannot provide legal advice, but will help you understand your rights under law, provide you with information about your options, and/or refer you to housing providers or organizations for additional help or assistance. The information you share with us is confidential and it can be provided anonymously if you prefer. The FHCCI’s fair housing counseling services are provided for free, with no regard for income. We assist home seekers of all types whether renters, home buyers, and/or homeowners.
