Protecting Homes. Defending Rights. Building Housing Stability.
Since 2013, The Waterfront Project has provided free legal services, housing counseling, and advocacy to low-income individuals and families in Hudson County and surrounding communities.
Our attorneys, counselors, and advocates help people stay in their homes, prevent foreclosure, navigate housing challenges, prepare for homeownership, and protect their rights, at no cost to our clients.
Because access to justice shouldn’t depend on what you can afford. And everyone deserves a safe, stable place to call home.
You can support our community and services by making a donation below. We greatly appreciate your support.
