Bronx Town Hall on the Campaign to Expand RTC!

 

Right to Counsel (RTC) has been a huge success in stopping evictions of low-income New Yorkers! 84% of the tenants who have a lawyer under the law remain in their homes!

Now, our "Right to Counsel, Power to Organize" campaign is calling for new legislation to be passed that would expand NYC's current RTC law to ensure that all tenants facing an eviction have RTC and know about it. Come learn about our campaign to expand the Right to Counsel and what you can do to work to make NYC eviction free! 

This event is co-hosted with Community Action for Safe Apartments (CASA) and Northwest Bronx Community & Clergy Coalition.

This location is wheelchair accessible. Food, childcare, and English/Spanish interpretation provided.

The Right to Counsel NYC Coalition is a tenant led broad based coalition that formed in 2014 to disrupt Housing Court as a center of displacement and stop the eviction crisis that has threatened our families, our neighborhoods and our homes for too long. Our Coalition is made up of tenants, organizers, advocates, legal services organizations and more! Our work is rooted in principles of equity, dignity, humanity, diversity and justice. After a hard fought, 3 year grassroots campaign, we won and became the first city in the nation to establish a Right to Counsel for tenants facing eviction. Our campaign has inspired a movement across the country.
