The following
fact sheets are designed to give you a primer on basic rights of tenants in
New York City. If they do not answer all of your questions
directly, call the Met Council Hotline (212-979-0611) on
Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 1:30 to 5 p.m. for more
information.
Part of knowing your rights is
knowing your government
- click here for a list
of housing resources on the web.
It also
means getting involved - come
join
Met Council and help make a difference
- the only reason you have any of the rights listed on
the fact sheets is that people have fought for them.
There are
other excellent resources for help on housing issues in
New York City. For more information on your rights in
Housing Court, contact
Housing Court Answers (formerly the City-Wide
Task Force on Housing Court), or view their

Sheets.
