How to keep tenants in rent-stabilized apartments

“Keep tenants in rent-stabilized apartments,” is the mission of the Bushwick Housing Independence Project (BHIP). Sister Kathleen Maire, of St. Barbara’s Roman Catholic Church on Bleecker Street, has devoted herself tirelessly to this mission for almost a decade. She runs BHIP, a non-profit organization dedicated to educating and organizing tenants and evading the nefarious pseudo-legal tactics of amoral landlords.
