Philadelphia Unemployment Project Fighting for fair pay and jobs for over 40 years- Organizing unemployed and low wage workers to advocate for economic justice

Sealing eviction records is not about protecting bad tenants, it’s about giving families a fair chance to recover from life’s hardships. Many evictions result from unavoidable circumstances such as job loss, medical emergencies or unaffordable rent hikes.

Donate to PUP today to support unemployed workers!
During the pandemic we organized to get workers their benefits, and now wait times have come down. But the system still has issues and we need to keep pushing.
Make a donation so we can keep up the fight!

Unemployed workers organizing together to push the state were a key part of making this happen. We're happy to see wait times going down, and we'll keep fighting for more improvements to help the unemployed in Pennsylvania. @followers
Having an eviction court filing on your record means many landlords won’t rent to you. But lots of tenants who receive eviction filings aren’t actually evicted.
Join us on 9/26 at 10am at the south side of City Hall to tell our legislators, Seal Eviction Records Now!
Philly's Eviction Diversion Program helps thousands of tenants avoid eviction each year through mediation and rental assistance.

Landlords filed 114,000 evictions in PA last year. Regardless of the outcome, those eviction records will always be visible, unfairly harming tenants who are searching for housing.
Sign our petition demanding records get sealed, because we're #ReadytoRent https://t.co/MdBe72F6Mo
I am so incredibly proud of the work that stakeholders, advocates and legislators in Harrisburg did to secure the $2.5 million in funding necessary to launch a statewide Tenant Right to Counsel program. Grateful to celebrate back in Philly with you all!

Today PUP joined our partners again to testify in City Council and urge them to support 2 new City Health Centers in Northeast Philadelphia. New patients at Health Center 10 on Cottman Ave need to wait a year for their first appointment. Build the Health Centers now!
We won! PA Commonwealth Court ruled in favor for the students, families, teachers and all PA’s. The fair funding for the ed. of our children MUST happen! Thanks for fighting @edlawcenterpa @PILCOP_EJ@PFTLocal3@rweingarten@BeckyPringle@thesherylralph
In a historic victory for students, a judge has declared Pennsylvania's school funding system unconstitutional. It’s time to ensure that all PA public schools are adequately and equitably funded! #PASchoolsWork#FundOurSchoolsPA
