Building Stronger Communities Through Collective Action
Housing justice is a collective responsibility. The Tenant Resource Center is privileged to collaborate with an extensive ecosystem of municipal agencies, philanthropic foundations, civil rights legal organizations, and grassroots community alliances across Madison, Dane County, and the State of Wisconsin.
These partnerships enable us to operate co-located counseling desks, deploy rapid eviction intervention funds, refer complex litigation to pro-bono attorneys, and provide comprehensive wrap-around support for families facing housing crises.
