About Memphis Tenants Union
Our Mission
Our mission is to build multi-racial, multi-generational, working-class tenants unions dedicated to building collective tenant power. Memphis Tenants Union builds relationships based on trust and accountability between neighbors in order to identify shared struggles, develop campaigns that win material gains, and fight together for housing justice.
Our Vision
Every human being deserves a safe space to call home and MTU is here to show the city of Memphis what is possible when we come together and start talking to our neighbors. Housing is a HUMAN right. Learn more about the history of MTU.
What We Do
Our organization focuses on building long-term renter power in Memphis. We are not lawyers or direct service providers, but rather a group of tenant leaders and organizers fighting for tenants' rights! If you and your neighbors are interested in organizing together to win against an unjust landlord, text us a message at 901-249-0650 or send us an email at memphistenantsunion@gmail.com
