Threshold

Founded in 1978, Threshold provides independent advice and advocacy to people experiencing housing problems. Our mission is to secure a right to housing for private renters experiencing poverty and exclusion, we achieve this by influencing housing policy.

Our Mission and Vision

Our vision is an Ireland where everyone has access to affordable, secure, suitable and good quality housing in sustainable communities.

Our mission is to advise tenants, prevent homelessness and to pursue a right to housing for all by:

  • Providing tailored advice and representation to tenants and their families
  • Delivering services and supports that protect tenancies and prevent people in the residential rented sector from becoming homeless
  • Advocating for housing rights, through policy and legal positions informed by our services

Our values are:

  •  Independence: We are an independent organisation and will pursue our agenda with courage and fairness.
  • Accountability and Openness: We are fully committed to the values of transparency and accountability in our work and governance, and openness to change and adapt our services.
  • Dignity, Care and respect: We will always treat our clients, our staff and other stakeholders with empathy, dignity, care and respect in all of our work and interactions.
  • Right to housing: We believe that everyone has a right to housing and equality of opportunity.
  • Empowerment: We believe in assisting tenants with specific advice to enable them to solve their own housing problems, and where necessary representing tenants in disputes and intervening in more complex cases.
  • Trust: We are trusted by both clients, statutory bodies, other NGOs, donors and other stakeholders to provide expert, accurate advice and evidence-informed policies to advance the situation facing tenants.
  • Competence and Experience: our advisors are a repository of knowledge and expertise on housing law and policy, informed by our work with clients, and our policy, legal and campaign work is lead and informed by the quantitative and case study data from our services.
