Tenants' Rights 1-on-1 Counseling

Tenants' Rights 1-on-1 Counseling

This program is for renters in Santa Cruz County who would like 1-on-1 support from a tenant rights counselor to discuss an issue with housing. In your 25 minute session, you will learn about your legal rights and how to use these rights to address your situation. Some topics that can be addressed are: unsafe or unsanitary housing conditions, rental increases, eviction and threats or harassment, and communication with a landlord. This program occurs every other week.

Tenant counselors help renters understand their rights. They are not lawyers and do not provide legal advice, opinion, or representation.
