Tenant's Rights Workshops

Community Member 03/14/2025 09:54

Do you have specific Neighborhood(s) in mind?: Midtown East
Which group(s) does your idea focus on? Select as many as apply.: Someone Else
Describe the challenge you want to address:: Landlords are often providing illegal-standard rental properties. Many tenants (in particular, more vulnerable tenants: non-English speakers, tenants without visas/green cards, BIPOC, younger tenants, etc.) are unaware of their legal rights regarding their rental properties and consequentially can be taken advantage of by predatory landlords. (e.g., housing vouchers)
What is the solution to the challenge?: Workshops to take place in community centers, libraries, education centers, etc. to educate attendees about their rights as tenants. There should also be advisors present who can give help regarding specific situations, help draft emails, ensure complaints are documented, etc. Further stretch funds could go towards legal support in small claims court. Budget would in part go to advertising and outreach, e.g., at subway stations.
Please provide your Zip Code: 10002
