The Housing Clinic is an incredible way to help tenants secure safe, affordable housing—during a pandemic where housing is more important than ever. The Clinic taught me key skills that I know will be useful going forward, including: effectively communicating with clients and walking them through complex legal processes, negotiating successfully with landlords, and analyzing state and federal housing laws. But above all, the Clinic gave me a window into the precarious lives of many tenants and how the law sometimes undermines and sometimes empowers, their efforts to find safe haven.
