NYCHA Residents: Vote TRUST, Not PACT!

We have a choice: maintain ownership of our NYCHA housing through the Public Housing Preservation Trust, or cede control to the PACT program — even though data shows that eviction rates in PACT-run buildings are significantly higher than at NYCHA-run buildings.

Money for Repairs, No Private Takeover

With the Trust, we finally unlock critical funding for repairs—including new kitchens, bathrooms, plumbing, and electrical—without handing over control to private companies.

Why the Trust is the Best Choice for NYCHA

100% Public Control

NYCHA remains in charge, meaning no private landlord involvement, more protections for tenants, and a stronger public voice.

Tenant Rights Protected

Rent stays capped at 30% of income, leases are secure, and resident organizing remains supported.

Together, we can secure the future of our NYCHA housing with the resources needed for safe, quality housing—without handing control to private developers. Your choice matters.

The PACT Means Turning Over Our Homes to a Private Manager – and a Greater Risk of Eviction

A new audit released by the city confirms some alarming facts about PACT-run buildings, including:

  • Eviction rates in PACT-run buildings are 4x to 5x higher than in NYCHA-run buildings.

  • In 2023, 10% of PACT-run units had an eviction notice filed – that’s 1-in-10 residents facing possible eviction.

  • Private landlords don’t follow standard eviction protections—leaving tenants at risk.

DON’T TAKE THE GAMBLE

And don’t take our word for it - there’s been plenty of reporting on the dangers of going PACT. See some recent coverage below:
