Our Tenants Struggle
Our tenant struggle has been a long and emotionally challenging journey, marked by stress, hardship, and the constant pressure to remain positive during division and adversity. We've had to carefully navigate our words and actions, all while facing difficult circumstances that have tested our resilience and unity.
Tenants organized to fight for their basic rights to be respected and the right to flush toilet paper down the toilet.
In February 2024 public housing tenants at Florence Janss apartment complex Thousand Oaks CA. Had to organize to fight for the right to flush toilet paper down the toilet. Please read the housing authority's community reminder letter that went out to all tenants in February 2024. We are now going public about our tenant struggles in public housing and all that we have endured since advocating for our basic rights to be respected and the right to flush toilet paper down the toilet.
Standing in Solidarity with Public Housing Tenants. No More Unfair Restrictions – Justice for Tenants!
We stand with Public Housing tenants in their struggle for justice to reclaim their fundamental rights, through unity and tenant empowerment. Every tenant deserves to live with dignity and without unfair restrictions on their rights. No one should have to fight for rights that should already be protected.
We, the undersigned, call on local, county, and federal officials to immediately investigate and intervene in the ongoing retaliation against tenants at Florence Janss Apartments, a public housing complex in Thousand Oaks, California, operated by the Area Housing Authority of the County of Ventura (AHACV).
Residents — whom are disabled, elderly, and low-income — are facing harassment and eviction threats for exercising their basic rights: organizing a Resident Council (AKA: tenant association), requesting ADA accommodations, and speaking out about uninhabitable conditions. Sign Petition
