Despite the Supreme Court's recent decision to uphold bans in West Virginia and Idaho on transgender athletes participating in women's and girls' sports, CT remains committed to ensuring that transgender women and girls remain protected and able to participate fully in sports throughout our state.

What if you need help quickly:

If you need immediate help to stop a serious problem (such as a landlord/agent has started an eviction action against you), CHRO may be able to assist you as soon as you file a complaint. CHRO may go to court to seek temporary or preliminary relief, before your complaint is fully resolved through the complaint process if:

  • Irreparable harm is likely to occur without such intervention,
  • There is substantial evidence that a violation of Fair Housing Law has occurred.

For Example: A builder agrees to sell you a house but, after learning you are disabled, fails to keep the agreement. You file a complaint with CHRO. We then may go to court to prevent a sale to any other buyer until we complete the investigation.
