Description of Activities
The Downtown Eastside SRO Collaborative Society (SRO‑C) is a non-profit organization working to improve habitability, affordability, safety, health and housing security for tenants living in privately owned Single Room Occupancy hotels (SROs) who are at risk of eviction and homelessness. We exist to amplify SRO tenants’ voices and support their community organizing through tenant-based initiatives. Our long-term goal is to support tenants to eventually holistically manage, collectively own and redevelop their homes in ways that work for the SRO tenant community.
