North Carolina Justice Center

The Housing, Consumer and Energy Project works to preserve homeownership, improve access to safe and affordable housing, and protect tenants and homeowners from harmful practices and scams. The Project is also dedicated to protecting North Carolina’s consumers from abusive business practices. Over the past thirty years, we have helped to ensure North Carolina has some of the best consumer protections in the nation; our advocacy efforts on housing are so widely known and respected that there is a statewide award that bears our former director of advocacy’s name. We work on consumer issues such as: We pursue high-impact cases that seek to protect and expand the rights of consumers, tenants, and homeowners. We have litigated many landmark class action cases, which have resulted in the recovery of millions of dollars for North Carolinians and the extension of important rights. We also help persons with low incomes preserve their homeownership and live in healthy communities by defending against the loss of their homes due to foreclosure, scams, and other threats. Highlights of our work can be found on our “ Litigation Successes ” page.
