Under Conn. Agencies Regs. § 8-37ee-602, any entity that receives housing agency funds in Connecticut must formally adopt a fair housing policy statement before those funds are received. The statement must spell out the entity's commitment to non-discrimination and demographic diversity, identify a compliance contact person, and include a procedure for handling discrimination complaints. Once approved by the housing agency and signed by an authorized official, the statement must be posted visibly in the entity's offices, made available online, and displayed at any construction or rehabilitation site.

Property owners and managers subject to Conn. Agencies Regs. § 8-37ee-602 generally ensure that a compliant fair housing policy statement is drafted, reviewed, and signed by the Board President or another authorized individual before any housing agency funds are accepted. Compliant operators keep the statement current with the required elements—including a named compliance contact and a discrimination complaint procedure—and secure housing agency approval before distributing it. They also maintain visible postings of the statement in their offices, on their websites or social media, and at active construction or rehabilitation sites.

Conn. Agencies Regs. § 8-37ee-602 gives tenants and applicants the right to expect that any entity receiving Connecticut housing agency funds has a publicly accessible fair housing policy statement that includes a discrimination complaint procedure. If you believe an entity is not complying with this requirement—or if you have experienced discrimination—the statement itself should identify a designated compliance contact and describe how to file a complaint, including how to request a reasonable accommodation for a disability. Tenant-rights organizations and the Connecticut Commission on Human Rights and Opportunities are among the resources available to help individuals understand their options under this framework.
