Having housing issues? We've got you!

This week, we will be holding our housing legal clinics at @WoodsideMoves and @EmilyAssembly office. Stop by for any questions or legal assistance.

Great to start off March last week with housing legal clinics at @CMJulieWon, @stnicksalliance, @UnitedNeighborO, and @votejgr offices.

This will negatively affect their employment, their health, and their communities. If you use Section 8 and are being unfairly treated by your landlord, we're here to help.

This ruling is devastating and will only increase discriminatory behavior by landlords, disproportionately affecting people of color.  It punishes people for needing help and makes it even harder for Section 8 recipients to find safe, stable homes.

If someone claims to be a City inspector, you have the right to know it’s really us. City personnel will always carry City-issued ID and will never ask about immigration status. If something doesn’t feel right, you don’t have to let anyone in.

A busy weekend at CoRe! On Saturday, we joined @NydiaVelazquez Student Internship and Resource Fair. It was great to meet with students and learn more about their interests. On Sunday, we joined the annual St. Pat’s for All parade. Always enjoy seeing our community partners.

Grateful to partner with @nycCoRe to protect our tenants! If you are facing a housing issue, please contact my office at (718) 457-0384 for an appointment with a tenant lawyer from Communities Resist!

With March approaching, we have many opportunities next week if you’re a tenant in need of housing-related legal assistance. Check out where we’ll be in a community near you!

Thank you to @YWCAQueens for having us this week!

Over the weekend, we joined La Mesa Verde tenants to call out A&E for continued neglect and mismanagement. After a historic blizzard and record cold temperatures, we demand that A&E provide heat and make the needed repairs so that tenants can live in safe and habitable housing.

And tomorrow, we’ll be at @WoodsideMoves for a housing know your rights workshop. Stop by if you’re a tenant in need of housing-related legal assistance.

Thank you to @CMJulieWon and @CMJenGutierrez for partnering with us last week.

We have more opportunities next week if you’re in need of housing-related legal assistance. Check out our schedule!

As Hayes Court tenants continue to live in inhumane conditions and neglect, we're working tirelessly to make sure that the building's management are being held accountable. Check out @HellGateNY piece on how we're fighting back and why we need a 7A. hellgatenyc.com/hayes-court-la…
