Tenant assistance project

The Tenant Assistance Project (TAP) is a homelessness prevention project that mobilizes pro bono attorneys and law students to provide free legal services to unrepresented low-income tenants who appear for their eviction hearings at the Douglas and Lancaster County Courthouses.  Training and resources are provided. 

If you are interested in volunteering with the program, please email Josh Henningsen at [email protected] for more information, or sign up using the buttons below.
