Hudson Catskill Housing Coalition is fundraising
Empower Tenants to Fight Eviction and Displacement
At Hudson/Catskill Housing Coalition, we believe housing is a human right. As a Black-led organization, we work to transform our hometowns through empowerment and education around housing justice.
Take a look at a video on our first six months!
We are focused on the dire housing crisis COVID-19 created for low income and public housing tenants. The fast approaching end to the COVID-19 Rent Moratorium makes these efforts more urgent than ever. Along with movement lawyers, we’re conducting tenants’ rights training, establishing a tenant hotline, and connecting tenants to legal counsel. In partnership with mutual aid groups, we distributed $10,000 of PPE and cleaning supplies.
Pandemic-induced urban flight is accelerating gentrification in the Hudson Valley at unforeseeable rates. We’re mobilizing tenants and allies to push our local governments to enact short-term rental regulations and expand public, low-income, and affordable housing.
We produced a video series of tenants telling their stories and expressing concerns and hopes for an equitable community. Our Housing Justice Tech League trains teens to use digital media to amplify marginalized voices.
In support of the Movement for Black Lives, we funded a unique and colorful Black Lives Matter street mural in Hudson in collaboration with local artists. The mural inspired debates about changes in municipal budgets and policies that will increase investment in community services and support equitable and affordable housing.
We recognize that our low-income neighborhoods are over-policed. The Coalition is advocating for a justice-based agenda for reimagining public safety on both sides of the river. Through press, social media, public meetings and our two virtual discussion series on systemic racism and activist strategies, Freedom Fall and Racial Justice in Catskill and Greene County, we are engaging tenants, community leaders, and allies to push for the reallocation of police funds to housing, mental health, addiction treatment, and child and family services.
