Monument Impact co-hosts bi-weekly Tenant Legal Clinics via Zoom for Central and East Contra Costa residents with Bay Area Legal Aid and East Bay Alliance for a Sustainable Economy (EBASE). In addition we work closely with Centro Legal de la Raza, referring members to their tenant legal services. In 2024, in partnership with Contra Costa County and Bay Area Community Services, Monument Impact will support Bay Legal and Centro by providing financial assistance for eviction settlements.
Staff assist tenants with letters to their landlords and facilitate Know Your Tenants Rights trainings. They also have created Tenant Guides in Spanish and English to provide up to date information on local tenant protection ordinances, as well as any changes to State law impacting renters.
Contra Costa County has many resources to help community members. For a list of immigration, tenant legal services, family and food resources, medical and dental clinics, click here.
