The Fight for Tenants’ Rights

As the crisis worsens and working-class people are left without work, services are being cut and foreclosed homes are left vacant, our fight for housing and justice needs to be even stronger, with bolder demands. Last year, Causa Justa :: Just Cause fought to win more tenant protections against evictions. We were able to move forward city legislation to apply eviction protections to currently exempted units built after 1979 and to expand the ban of “owner move-in” evictions to protect tenants with children in the home. While we have made progress with these campaigns, our work on these policies will continue until we cement these wins for all of San Francisco’s tenants as well.

Reinvest and Rebuild

On the East side of the Bay, the fight against foreclosures continues with Causa Justa :: Just Cause’s weekly foreclosure prevention group. As part of out Reinvest and Rebuild Campaign, the foreclosure prevention group is a member-led, each-one-teach-one space where the real experts lend advice to folks to keep families housed. Most private attorneys charge up to $3,000.00 for the services that our group provides for free. In return, we ask that the participants support others in similar situations and in this way build a united front against foreclosures in our community. The foreclosure prevention group meets every Wednesday in our East Oakland office. For more information, contact robbie@cjjc.org.
