At City Life, we help people stay in their homes. 

City Life/Vida Urbana is a grassroots community organization committed to fighting for racial, social and economic justice and gender equality by building working class power. We promote individual empowerment, develop community leaders and build collective power to effect systemic change and transform society.

Are you fighting to stay in your home?

Join us at one of our weekly meetings, where you can speak with an organizer and lawyer, and meet others that are fighting the same battles! We have meetings in three locations:

The organization we now know as City Life / Vida Urbana sprouted from the seeds of the feminist, civil rights, and anti-war movements of the early 1970s. In honor of our community’s 50th anniversary (and at our Joyful Resistance Jubilee in October), we’ll celebrate our lineage of anti-displacement organizing and our movement of building solidarity within our communities since 1973! / La Organización que ahora conocemos como City Life / Vida Urbana surgió de las semillas de los movimientos feministas, de derechos civiles y contra la guerra de principios de la década de 1970. En honor al 50º aniversario de nuestra comunidad (y en nuestro Jubileo de Resistencia Alegre en octubre), celebraremos nuestro linaje como Organización contra el desplazamiento y nuestro movimiento de construcción de solidaridad dentro de nuestras comunidades desde 1973.
