Eviction and utility cut-offs information

Mar 23, 2020

DC Jobs with Justice has compiled some of the best and most accessible information needed by working folks to survive during this crisis period.  The NLG- DC Chapter is an active member of the Jobs with Justice coalition in D.C.

Please help share the word: 

  • evictions are illegal, but that doesn't mean that individual landlords won't try to evict or threaten to evict. 
  • Call Office of the Tenant Advocate for help:  (202) 719-6560
  • knowing that utilities will not be cut off allows residents to plan their expenses, which is critical with so many out of work
  • Please take a moment to think about who might need this information and text, email, or reach out to let them know.
