The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) awarded a $2,130,378 Eviction Protection Grant Program (CFDA 14.537) Project Grant to Bet Tzedek Legal Services Inc., a non-profit organization in Los Angeles, CA. The purpose of this 2-year grant is to increase access to coordinated legal and social services, reduce displacement, and prevent evictions for low-income, underserved, and Black, Indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC) communities in Southern California. Bet Tzedek will provide full-scope legal representation, counsel and advice, alternative dispute advocacy, post-eviction housing stability services, court navigation, referrals, and outreach and education to eligible tenants. The expected outcomes include retaining tenancies, vindicating fair housing rights, obtaining rental arrearage payments, and ensuring continuity of services like schooling and healthcare during housing transitions.
