    About the Organization:

    Dolores Street Community Services (DSCS) nurtures individual wellness and cultivates collective power among low-income and immigrant communities to create a more just society. As a multi-issue, multi-strategy organization, we work to improve lives on an individual level as well as affect broader social change by engaging in advocacy and community organizing. We work together across programs to address homelessness, lack of affordable housing, and to support immigrant rights in order to meet the complex needs of our communities and collectively address the root causes of suffering and injustice. To learn more about our organization's model and impact, we encourage you to watch the following video.


    Program and Position Summary:

    The Housing Rights Program works to improve living conditions and empower tenants living in the Mission District and other districts populated by the Latinx community and other marginalized folks in San Francisco. Through a variety of direct services and organizing methods, including but not limited to case management and stabilization, multi-service referrals, leadership and advocacy trainings, and supporting the formation of tenant associations. The Housing Rights Program consists of two main components, the Mission SRO Collaborative (MSROC) and the Tenant Counseling program.

    MSROC focuses specifically on conditions and advocacy in Single Room Occupancy (SRO) hotels in the Mission District of San Francisco. The Collaborative is comprised of DSCS as the lead agency and fiscal agent, and includes the San Francisco Anti-Displacement Coalition, the Mission Neighborhood Resource Center, and the Women's Community Clinic as partner agencies. MSROC is also part of the SRO Families United Collaborative (SROFU), a citywide collaboration of community-based organizations in Chinatown, South of Market, the Tenderloin, and the Mission that serves families with children who live in hotels.

    The Tenant Counseling program is a newer arm of DSCS Housing Rights work that extends services beyond the Mission to reach community members living in other districts such as the Excelsior, where many displaced Latinx and immigrant tenants have settled. The program focuses on providing case management, stabilization, and referral services to tenants in a variety of housing situations in these various districts.
