The Fair Housing Council of Riverside has been around since 1986. It's a non-profit organization that fights to protect individuals and their housing rights.  They were created to ensure that people will live free from unlawful housing practices and discrimination. 

The Fair Housing Council met in January and unveiled a plan for a mix use affordable housing project in downtown Riverside. The council decided to replace offices at 3933 Mission Ave Inn. with a multi-use space. The plan is to build a multi-story building which would provide homes for low income residents, community meeting spaces, a museum of civil rights.
