Georgetown Law School
Students in the Civil Division of RFJ, otherwise known as the Housing Advocacy and Litigation Clinic, represent clients in D.C. Superior Court, primarily in the Landlord and Tenant and Branch. Law students prevent evictions, preserve affordable housing, and secure tenants’ rights under federal and District law. The program works to fight the consequences of poverty, to prevent homelessness, and to combat the affordable housing crisis in the District of Columbia while teaching law students to become effective advocates.
