A suggested script — adapt it to your situation:
Hi, I'm looking for free legal help and wanted to know if I qualify.
My name is [your name], and I'm interested in the Fair Housing Advocacy and Discrimination Investigation program.
I wanted to ask whether there are any requirements I should know about, such as People in southeast Michigan with housing-discrimination concerns, including Washtenaw County residents?
I also wanted to confirm your current hours. I see Monday-Friday business hours; call for current availability. Is that still accurate?
And just to confirm — is this service free of charge?
What is the best way to get started? I see call the center or complete the online contact process to report housing discrimination or request fair-housing help.
Thank you so much for your help.
Always introduce yourself and ask to speak with someone who can help with your specific need.
