Problem

Renters receive eviction notices and don't know what to do. 211info.org has complicated information. As does Need Help Paying Bills

Found on Feb 8: Community Alliance of Tennants, which has a lot of the urgently needed information and is nicely organized. 

The web site Tenants Priced Out has a page about surviving displacement; need to build awareness.

 

Solution

A well-known resource that has instant information for renters who receive eviction notices, such as a phone number to call, web site to visit, to find out tenants rights, in plain language (also translated). Perhaps require Renters Emergency Response to be part of lease agreements.
