Program areas at Communities Resist

Communities Resist works closely with a network of over 20 community-based partners that organize tenants in brooklyn and queens to actively represent 110 tenant associations and over 2,250 individuals in both boroughs: from williamsburg, bushwick, east new york, and brownsville in brooklyn to jackson heights, flushing, and ridgewood in queens. Ours is a resistance that plays out both inside the courtroom and on the streets, as we fight alongside those we serve to dismantle systemic injustice.
