Right now, an overwhelming number of Tennesseans are facing evictions and foreclosures and 59% are forced to go into court completely unrepresented. Meanwhile, banks, landlords, and management corporations show up with expensive legal teams.

It’s time to level the playing field.

Join us this Saturday for a critical community session to discuss tenant screenings, housing rights, discrimination, and what we can do together to fight back against these soaring eviction rates.

What to expect on-site:

Know Your Rights: Onsite attorneys will break down what is legal and what is not under housing law.

Legal Support: If your questions aren't fully answered during the general sessions, you can schedule a legal appointment for further assistance.

Resource Partners: Connect with community organizations like Habitat for Humanity.
