Social Planning and Research Council of Hamilton

Social Planning and Research Council of Hamilton will undertake a public legal education initiative for tenants in two of Hamilton’s low income neighbourhoods related to preventing displacement due to gentrification. The project will use popular education to increase the knowledge and capacity of tenants to respond to landlords’ attempts to displace them. This will allow tenants to better advocate for themselves in the legal process.
