El Centro de Derechos Humanos de Chapel Hill y Carrboro, que esta ubicado en el edificio E de Abbey Court, en Carrboro, Carolina del Norte, fue fundado a principios de 2009. Desde su establecimiento, El Centro ha obedecido las leyes locales de zonificación de Carrboro y las normas residenciales de Abbey Court.
Durante los últimos dos años, el Centro ha trabajado para mejorar las vidas de residentes de Abbey Court, Carrboro y Chapel Hill. Mediante programas educativos, culturales, y de computación, el Centro ha ayudado a niños, estudiantes, familias, y a trabajadores a ajustarse social, cultural, y económicamente a la comunidad. A través del trabajo de voluntarios y estudiantes de la Universidad de Carolina del Norte, el Centro ha ayudado a crear un ambiente más positivo donde residentes han desarrollado más esperanza para sus familias.
Recientemente, el Centro recibió una notificación de los representantes legales de la asociación de propietarios de Abbey Court que impone una multa excesiva a nuestra organización.
Por medio de esta petición, les pedimos su apoyo para solicitar a la asociación de propietarios de Abbey Court que le permitan al Centro de Derechos Humanos la oportunidad de permanecer en nuestra ubicación actual hasta el 15 de mayo.
I spent the whole morning reading through the notes you all left here and it is just honestly overwhelming to see how much this space actually means to everyone in the neighborhood. The association keeps sending these cold legal notices while I am trying to keep the computers running for the kids and honestly it is just exhausting but your messages keep me going anyway.

I was just staring at the screen and realized how many people actually care about this place which is honestly making my hands shake a little bit. It is such a massive relief to know that the community sees the value in what we are doing at Abbey Court even when the lawyers are trying to push us out the door because honestly who would have thought this would turn into a real movement instead of just a quiet little plea for help.

Ridiculous to shut down a place that actually helps people. Leave them alone.

My son learned so much here. Why are you guys trying to kick them out? This is for the neighborhood not against it!

This is a total joke. Abbey Court needs this resource. Stop the fines and let them work.

This center really helped my kids with their homework. The community needs this place to stay open. Please reconsider.
