Long-time Northeast D.C. residents Anthony Compton, Virginia Patterson, William Jenkins, and Robert Marzet Graham nearly lost their apartments when a new landlord tried to double their rent. Legal Aid DC’s multi-year efforts on behalf of the Carrolton Apartments Tenant Association resulted not only in long-overdue repairs but also in protection from significant rent increases, ensuring their apartments will remain affordable as long as the association members live there.
