We join our clients in the struggle to organize, assert their rights and protect their homes. We work to ensure that community voices are centered in the decisions that impact their lives and neighborhoods.
Communities Resist is a community-based legal services and advocacy organization seeking to empower, educate and represent low-income tenants in some of the most gentrified neighborhoods in New York City. We represent individual tenants and tenant associations in housing court, state and federal court, and administrative agencies, bringing affirmative cases under housing and civil rights laws to fight against discrimination and harassment, and to ensure that landlords provide essential building services and perform adequate repair and maintenance work. We represent, on an ongoing basis, over 110 tenant associations, 30 low-income housing cooperatives, and at least three community housing coalitions, directly serving well over 1,500 families within Brooklyn through the comprehensive legal representation of tenant associations -- from formation through litigation -- to prevent further displacement and to defend against evictions.
