We Need Tenant Advocates!
A wave of evictions is sweeping New Orleans.
Landlords are profiteering the aftermath of tragedy by pushing poor and working class families out of the fewer homes. Rents are doubling and tripling. Even tenants who have paid their rent are finding their possesions on the street as landlords rush to bring in higher paying tenants.

Common Ground needs anti-eviction organizers in New Orleans.

The method is OCAP style mix of direct action casework and broader community organizing campaign.
