The National Housing Law Project is a housing law and advocacy center established in 1968 that uses legal mechanisms to advance housing justice for low-income people. It aims to increase and preserve the supply of decent, affordable housing by addressing housing conditions, management practices, and the enforcement of rights for tenants and homeowners. The organization also seeks to expand opportunities for racial and ethnic minorities within housing, reflecting its focus on equity in housing policy and practice. Operating in the legal services arena, NHLP translates policy and law into strategies that influence housing outcomes. Based in San Francisco, California, NHLP operates as a relatively small organization within the legal services field, collaborating with national partners to influence housing policy and practice. A notable development in 2025 was a partnership with the National Low Income Housing Coalition to bolster advocacy with enhanced resources and data.
