We believe safe, quality housing is a RIGHT!

Too many of the homes in the Clinton Hill neighborhood still have lead-based paint and pipes, old single pain windows, and have not been properly maintained by landlords and may have leaks or pests. Advocating for healthy homes is our way of doing something about it!
