California Launches Campaign to Navigate State’s New Tenant, Landlord Protections

California Governor Gavin Newsom launched the “Housing is Key” campaign on Tuesday aimed at connecting renters and landlords experiencing economic hardship due to COVID-19 with helpful information and resources. The campaign follows the signing of one of the strongest statewide tenant protection measures in the country on Monday and will be run by the Business, Consumer Services and Housing Agency (BCSH).

“Struggling tenants and landlords now have new protections and relief under the law – and it’s critical that all Californians learn their rights,” said Governor Newsom. “It’s important that we reach renters across the state who might be one paycheck away from losing their homes and landlords who are short on their mortgages because of owed rent. Housing is Key will begin the public education campaign that will ramp up in the weeks to come and target vulnerable communities who have been hit the hardest by this pandemic.”

Information on how to navigate through the myriad of issues can be found on the new website. Tenants and landlords can learn more about the new Tenant, Homeowner and Small Landlord Relief and Stabilization Act of 2020 at COVID19.ca.gov or HousingIsKey.com.
