Jacobin Magazine explores the impact of our groundbreaking Tenant Right to Counsel program that has saved thousands of San Franciscans from eviction. We are proud of what we have accomplished together, and hope that our program will continue to serve a model for more cities as evictions rise. https://jacobin.com/2024/05/san-franciscos-right-to-counsel-helps-thousands-stay-housed/

San Francisco’s Right to Counsel Helps Thousands Stay Housed

Tenant “right to counsel” policies, which guarantee legal representation to tenants facing eviction, are proving to be a humane and cost-effective way to address homelessness. The data on San Francisco’s policy shows how effective they can be.

A reminder of the demonstration occurring at 5:30pm eastern time today.

Text from the instagram link below:

"🚨Homelesss Encampment EVICTION🚨 The Montreal Autonomous Tenants' Union is calling for a public demonstration this Monday, 5:30pm, outside Atwater metro station (Cabot Square). We have received word from a union member living within the encampment under the Ville-Marie Expressway that an eviction is planned for the first week of March. True or not, we are asking for the permanent cancellation of this "postponed" eviction, and arrangements for good housing for encampment residents. Share widely and bring out your networks.

These evictions are not solutions to homelessness and do not improve the lives of people who are homeless. Homelessness is caused by our broken shelter system, the predatory rents and evictions of landlords, and the modern austerity politics of capitalist governments who underfund and mismanage mental health, social, and housing services.

Some members of the encampment have been living there for over five years. After our union helped to push back the last eviction, members of the encampment were promised good housing by the government. From what we can tell, this ended up being only talk and PR.

The housing crisis affects us all! Defend your neighbours!

May this site's residents be successful and may all find shelter in the place they call home.

You know the courts and so called Justice system is a joke because even if someone is facing harassment and eviction from their home you go in scared knowing the judge could very well rule in the landlords favor.

Please send your prayers for this person Im meeting here to support, the truth is the landlord and her minion are just trying to punish her for the crime of being a brown proletarian woman who isn't gonna bow down to them.

What angle can we use to try and get the city and housing authority to back off? What can we try to negotiate for the best outcome?
