Prevention Project (HOPP) of the Urban Justice Center represents low and
no-income people, including homeless and marginally housed individuals, in
cases involving public assistance, food stamps, and emergency rental
assistance. This representation includes representation at fair hearings
and Article 78 proceedings, as well as state and federal court
representation on class action and impact litigation matters. HOPP also
provides appropriate referrals regarding other problems, including housing
court assistance and SSI issues. Please note that we are not able to
