COUNSELING ON THE RIGHTS OF TENANTS AND HOMEOWNERS (FREE)

Two free housing clinics are scheduled for this month, one to assist tenants and the other to assist homeowners (owners of private homes as well as cooperatives).

Assemblymember Jim Brennan is partnering with Housing and Family Services of Greater New York, formerly Brooklyn Housing and Family Services, to co-sponsor the clinics. Housing and Family Services has more than forty years of experience in our community.

Schedule an appointment with a housing counselor from Housing and Family Services by calling Assemblymember Brennan's District Office at (718) 788-7221. Also call that number if you have any questions that Assemblymember Brennan's staff can help you with.
