About this organization
Mission
The mission of the Metropolitan Tenants Organization (MTO) is to educate, organize and empower tenants to have a voice in the decisions that affect the availability and affordability of safe, decent and accessible housing.
About
Tenants stabilization: Tenants stabilization includes three sub-programs. Each program is designed to educate and assist individual tenants to stabilize their rental housing situation. MTO's tenants rights hotline serves between 8,000 and 10,000 renters annually. Staff and volunteer hotline counselors provide callers with information to help them resolve existing housing crises. Counselors provide tenants with verbal information and then send them written documentation. MTO provides tenants with 11 different brochures covering all areas of rental housing. MTO also has 15 sample letters tenants can use to help them follow the law and communicate with their landlord. MTO's eviction prevention partnership with the Lawyers Committee for Better Housing works to decrease eviction and give tenants more choices with their housing situations. MTO's healthy housing program addresses the intersection of health and housing by inspecting homes to identify home-based health hazards.
