ORGANIZE YOUR NEIGHBORS
We believe in the power of community to create real and lasting change. Organizing your neighbors is the first step toward building collective power to protect your rights, preserve affordable housing, and demand accountability from landlords and policymakers.
​
When tenants work together, they can apply the most pressure to make a landlord provide services, make repairs, and stop the harassment. Tenants united can get the best possible outcome for the rent they are paying.
