In 1956, before the days of fair housing legislation, a handful of residents of eastern Delaware County banded together to support the efforts of a unique real estate firm, Friends Suburban Housing, that accepted only those listings which could be shown on a non-discriminatory basis to all financially eligible home seekers. This began today what is the oldest fair housing organization in the United States, the Fair Housing Council of Suburban Philadelphia.
