We were glad to be joined by and take part in the #WelfareNotWarfare protest and @Dis_PPL_Protest after the housing protest. LFHC calls for investment into housing and tenant protections. We say no to cuts which will impact disabled people and disabled coop tenants so heavily!

If you haven't already done so, don't forget to take our survey on housing and the workplace!

Please help by taking the survey and circulating within your network: https://t.co/h1waFhu9VP

Our survey is about the impact of the housing crisis in the workplace. The survey is completely anonymous. It asks about the impact of rising rents, as well as illness and injury triggered by bad housing which leads to workplace absence.
