Idaho Care Line Quick Referral – 2-1-1
If you are unsure of where to start, call 2-1-1 and ask for the numbers of local and regional fair housing resources.
Although they are not fair housing experts, 2-1-1 staff can provide more specific contact information. They also track the type and location of complaints, which helps all partners target education and outreach to reduce violations and increase awareness of fair housing rights and responsibilities. 2-1-1 staff refer all callers to the organizations below for follow-up.
