Across the country, cities are inspired by NYC. In 2018, San Francisco and Newark passed Right to Counsel and in 2019, Cleveland, Philadelphia and Santa Monica passed Right to Counsel! We are working closely with tenant organizing groups, advocacy groups and legal services providers in cities across the country who see RTC as a tool to build tenant power in their cities as well.
National Resources:
- Read our RTC Campaign Toolkit, which we developed with the help of Take Root Justice, to tell the story of how we won as well as to provides tools, templates and activities for organizers in other cities to use in their campaigns. Watch this webinar for an overview of what's in the toolkit and how to use it.
- Watch and share the documentary about our campaign, Our Rights! Our Power! The Right To Counsel (RTC) Campaign To Fight Evictions In NYC!
Please reach out anytime. We are more than happy to share lessons learned, resources, etc.
