HOUSING
Safe and affordable housing is a basic right that many of our clients do not have access to. Building an independent future is almost impossible when facing eviction, landlord harassment, or housing-related health issues. That’s why we’ve helped thousands of New Yorkers stay in their homes.
By providing free legal, development, organizing, and weatherization assistance, we help our clients remove the obstacles that keep them from enjoying more housing security.

Housing security promotes family and individual well being. NMIC’s commitment to protecting people’s right to quality, safe, and affordable housing, enhances their opportunities to pursue their aspirations for a brighter tomorrow.
