Tri-Cities Renters United
Tri-Cities Renters United is a working group affiliation between Tri-Cities Mutual Aid & Solidarity Network and Tennessee Renters United.
why we exist
The majority of Tri-Cities residents are renters, but our voices are still drowned out by developers, landlords, and property owners. Renters are community members as much as anyone else, and our problems are community problems. We can work together to make change happen, because our voices are louder together.
what we do
We have been holding listening sessions to hear what problems our neighbors are facing, we have been facilitating Know Your Rights workshops around the Tri-Cities, as well as having community potlucks once a month at Carver Park in Johnson City where we can come together around shared experience over good food. We have also partnered with local realtors and experts to share a Renter to Homeowner workshop. We will continue to build community and solidarity around renters' issues and find ways to make change happen.
get involved!
