For some, it was a chance to spend a day at the beach; while others took full advantage of the ironic day-off and hosted backyard barbecues.
But for the Flatbush Tenant Coalition, Labor Day 2016 was an opportunity to empower NYC rent-regulated tenants, show solidarity, and to have some fun celebrating all of the different cultures that converge at the annual Caribbean Carnival Parade on Eastern Parkway.
Coalition leaders stood alongside members of Brooklyn Legal Services to spread the good news about free tenants’ rights information and housing resources available to Brooklyn renters. Our dedicated tenant leaders distributed over 600 packets of tenant rights booklets & Coalition flyers!
