Know Your Rights

Know Your Tenant Rights with PEU

The Mayor’s Public Engagement Unit’s Tenant Support Unit (TSU) educates New Yorkers about their tenant rights. Educating New Yorkers about their rights empowers community members to fully advocate for themselves and ensures that the City is better able to meet community members’ needs. By informing New Yorkers of their rights, and connecting them to support resources, TSU helps people stay securely in their homes. Learn more about tenant rights.

Join us! By sharing our Know Your Rights campaign, you can help spread the word about different tenant rights and ultimately build a stronger community with access to resources.
