  • Why lead paint needs more attention.
  • How this deleading credit will help solve this public health crisis.
  • How to ask your representative and senator to co-sponsor this legislation.

One of our members testified before a house and senate committee on Beacon Hill in 2019. The room was packed. People sat on the carpet for lack of chairs.
MassLandlords has filed bills and testified since we were founded in 2013. We list over a dozen related achievements on our policy page.

Part of this presentation will be given by Doug Quattrochi, Executive Director, MassLandlords, Inc. Doug was a founding member of MassLandlords in 2013. He became the association's first Executive Director under new bylaws in 2014. Since then, he has scaled the organization from a core of 160 members in Worcester to approximately 2,500 dues paying businesses from Pittsfield to the Cape, and from an all-volunteer team to approximately 20 full and part-time staff plus 50 volunteers. Doug has been instrumental in advancing democratic governance mechanisms, including score voting for policy priorities and a staggered and democratically elected Board of Directors. Doug also oversees the RentHelper spin-off, which is expanding access to electronic banking for those of us who are unbanked or underbanked. Prior to MassLandlords, Doug held leadership roles in various Massachusetts startups, two of which are still operating. Doug holds a Master of Science in Aerospace Engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
