Civil nuisance abatement strategies engage citizens, neighborhood groups, and coalitions to use civil law procedures as a way to tackle nuisance properties. Using civil law policies, citizens, business owners and neighborhood groups file civil law complaints in small claims court to address nuisances not covered by criminal laws. These strategies empower people to make change in their communities without relying solely on law enforcement and criminal proceedings. Presenters will train participants on how to regain control of their communities by holding those creating public nuisances accountable and reducing the feelings of frustration and powerlessness community members may feel.
