fighting for
housing justice
against gentrification & displacement
Our Mission
CoRe is a community-based law office that partners with communities of color in Brooklyn and Queens to combat predatory capitalism, gentrification and structural racism. We join our clients in the struggle to organize, assert their rights, and protect their homes. We work to ensure that community voices are centered in the decisions that impact their lives and neighborhoods. Ours is a resistance that plays out both inside the courtroom and on the streets, as we fight alongside those we serve to dismantle systemic injustice.
