About the Tenants Advice and Advocacy Services
There are 15 generalist Tenants Advice and Advocacy Services (TAASs), 4 specialist Aboriginal TAASs, and a specialist resourcing body for the Aboriginal TAASs. Each is run by a local non-government organisation. They are funded by NSW Fair Trading under the Tenants Advice and Advocacy Program (TAAP), which uses money from the Rental Bond Board Interest Account and the Property Services Statutory Interest Account.
TAASs assist renters in private rental housing, social housing tenants, boarders, lodgers, and land lease community residents. The Network brings together the skills and expertise of highly skilled Tenant Advocates who work to ensure quality professional advice and advocacy is available to all renters in NSW.
The TAAS network responds to approximately 30,000 requests annually for tenancy advice and provides ongoing assistance to approximately 10,000 tenants annually.
