Tenant empowerment

The Progress of SRO’s over the last 25 years has been often fraught with many limited chooses. In the 90’s where most of the poor were relegated to privately owned flop hotels and shelters with unsafe conditions. We fought with city hall to mandate fire sprinklers system, wheel chair access for our seniors and infirmed. We organize and built coalitions to focus on common themes we can all share in our activism for today.
