In April 2024, Good Cause Eviction Protections were signed into law in New York State after years of organizing by tenants. However, the answer to "Do I qualify for Good Cause?" is not always straightforward for tenants in NYC. JustFix, in collaboration with Housing Justice For All, created a tool for tenants in NYC to easily check their Good Cause coverage. In this session, we will discuss the product development process of the Good Cause Eviction Screener and in particular, how the rich open data ecosystem in NYC has allowed us to create a simple, easy-to-use product for all tenants.
