H 1519 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act relative to housing service coordinators

HD 3694 establishes a program for housing service coordinators to assist residents in privately owned state and federally assisted housing. These coordinators help reduce evictions, increase housing stability, and connect residents to education, job training, and other services that promote economic self-sufficiency. Property owners must provide tenants 30 days to meet with a coordinator before filing most eviction notices (unless immediate health/safety threats exist), and the Department of Housing and Community Development must report quarterly on coordinator numbers, locations, and evictions prevented.
