The Issue

Safe Housing for Pittsburg Families

Families at El Pueblo Housing in Pittsburg are living in unsafe conditions under the Housing Authority of Contra Costa County (HACCC). Problems like:

  • Rodent and cat infestations
  • Unsafe asbestos work without notice to the community
  • Plumbing issues and broken fixtures
  • Repairs delayed or ignored
  • Mistreatment or harassment from HACCC staff or onsite officers

Families are left in the dark after HUD inspections and often feel fear of retaliation instead of support. Units are patched up only for inspections or when a family moves out, while current residents are forced to live with unsafe problems.

We call on HACCC to:

  • Fix pest and plumbing problems the right way.
  • Approve needed ADA housing for families with disabilities.
  • Communicate openly with residents and stop retaliation.
  • Put money into real repairs, not cameras and cover-ups.

Every family deserves a safe, healthy, and respectful home. Sign today to demand safe housing in Pittsburg.
