Anti-Displacement Movement

The Anti-Displacement Movement seeks to prevent the forced relocation of residents from their homes, particularly in gentrifying neighborhoods where rising property values and rents threaten long-time, often low-income residents. Activists advocate for policies that promote affordable housing, protect tenant rights, and support community stability. The movement highlights social equity, emphasizing that everyone deserves access to safe and affordable living conditions, and often involves community organizing, protests, and lobbying for legislative changes to address housing injustice.
