Pittsburgh area residents and others are invited to learn about what’s driving rising housing prices in our communities, how tenants can defend their rights and improve conditions, and how community activists and organizations and elected officials are working to bring new solutions to the deepening crisis of housing insecurity. Although housing is a human right protected under both national and international law, governments haven’t done enough to guarantee all people–especially the most vulnerable– a right to a safe and secure home. We believe that a better city is possible. Be part of the work to realize a city where everyone can enjoy safe, stable and affordable housing.
