Hello! My name is Sunny Fan, I’m currently a resident of Woonsocket RI. I’m not sure if this is something I could get assistance with from your team but here is a short-as-possible summary of my situation and our claims. -stems from event that occurred 2022/2023 for reasons of eviction on our current record. (really long story) -Family of 5 - adult/s & children w/ diagnosed disabilities. -Currently facing financial and housing instability - supported through Pawtucket Housing Authority’s 2yr CoC Rapid Rehousing program ending Feb 1st 2026 for rent coverage w/ no assurance of not facing homelessness. -Course of approx 2yr residency, faced detrimental, coercive, inappropriate, inconsiderate, threatening behaviors by the landlord and property management company on top of failures to comply with HUD standards & regulations. -Still residing in unit already deem inhabitable twice by certified housing inspector from 3rd party agency qualified for and is utilized by Pawtucket Housing Authority. This is the simplest general break down I could think of on the spot. I hope this information finds its way to someone who may be able to assist me and my family. We really need some kind of help.. Respectfully, Sunny Fan
