NLIHC’s SLI Project Release Four Tenant Protection Toolkits

NLIHC’s State and Local Innovation (SLI) project released on August 15 four toolkits highlighting key tenant protections that can be passed to strengthen renters’ rights at the state and local levels. Part of NLIHC’s State and Local Tenant Protection Series: A Primer on Renters’ Rights, the toolkits cover four key protections: just cause eviction standards, rent stabilization policies, laws that strengthen habitability standards and code enforcement procedures, and laws that limit excessive rental fees. Each toolkit provides an overview of one major tenant protection, details the common components of the protection, lists information about state and local jurisdictions that have adopted the protection, suggests provisions that should be taken into consideration when enacting the protection, and highlights complementary policies that can be passed alongside the protection to ensure the greatest impact possible.
