Join this site if you are a volunteer attorney or legal services advocate advising low income and disadvantaged clients on housing issues in New York, there are resources here to help you.
The New York City Housing Practice Area brings together housing practitioners who regularly and exclusively represent tenants in civil litigation in New York City. The housing practice area helps these tenant advocates do their job more effectively by providing a site for sharing information and legal resources.
This site is hosted by the Legal Support Unit of Legal Services for New York City and The Legal Aid Society, and has been created with assistance from attorneys at the neighborhood-based offices of Legal Services.

The heart of the housing practice area is the library, which houses a wide range of resources for the practitioner. In addition to legal resources, the New York City housing practice area provides a network of experienced lawyers with whom you share ideas, strategy and work product.
