Contra Costa ACCE organizes tenants in Richmond, Antioch, Pittsburg, and San Pablo to fight for Housing Justice! In 2024, Antioch ACCE members secured another major victory for tenants when the Antioch City Council passed a strong Just Cause for Eviction ordinance. This victory completes a powerful trifecta of tenant protections won by ACCE Antioch members, building on their previous wins for rent control and tenant anti-harassment protections (TAHO).
After two years of persistent organizing in Richmond, ACCE members won a landmark victory in December 2024 when Richmond City Council passed major improvements to the city's housing code enforcement system, marking a crucial step toward safe, healthy housing for all Richmond residents. We continue to organize across the county - particularly in San Pablo and Pittsburg where we are fighting to win rent control, just cause for evictions and a tenant anti-harassment policy!
