Sexual harassment is illegal. Fair housing is your right.

You should never have to choose between your home and being sexually harassed.

If your landlord, rental manager, or anyone else with control over your housing:

  • Commented on your body or looks
  • Talked about sex, showed you pornography, exposed self
  • Asked for sexual favors in exchange for renting to you
  • Threatened to evict you if you won’t engage in sexual acts
  • Asked for sexual photos of you before making repairs
  • Touched your without your consent

You may be experiencing sexual harassment.

Even if you said “yes”.

Even if you have a criminal history.

Even if you have been evicted.

Even if you were behind on your rent.
