Disability Justice
At Community Counsel, disability justice means more than access — it means dignity, stability, and the power to live safely in our community. We stand with people with disabilities who are pushed to the margins by unlawful housing practices, inaccessible shelters, and systems that criminalize poverty. Through advocacy, education, and impact litigation, we work to remove barriers, hold institutions accountable, and protect the civil rights of our neighbors.
We believe our community is strongest when everyone has a safe place to live and the freedom to thrive.

unlawful Vehicle TOws
For many people with disabilities, a vehicle is safety, shelter, and independence. We challenge unlawful vehicle towing practices that disproportionately harm unhoused and disabled community members and work to prevent the loss of critical personal property.
