Can’t afford to wait for affordable housing? You’re not alone

Unite, Stand Up, Fight Back!

On September 22nd, 2016 join the National Renters Day of Action for Dignity & Respect to declare a Renters State of Emergency and take to the streets to demand an end to Rising Rents, Evictions and Gentrification.

Pledge to take action today at www.HomesForAll.org/rentersday

Now more than ever housing is unaffordable for millions of people.  Rents nationwide are higher than they have been in history, evictions are at epidemic levels, and our communities can’t wait for affordable housing anymore. Working-class people, low-income, communities of color, immigrants and formerly incarcerated folks are bearing the brunt of this crisis as housing become even more unattainable and our cultures and communities are displaced.

Developers and landlords continue to put profits before human needs - but we can unite and fight back for renter rights and to take back our cities! Together the #RenterNation is strong.

Together we can unite to fight for renters’ rights, defend our homes, and win community control over land & housing in our cities!

Join us 9.22.2016  and take action in your city to fight for housing justice, assert the right to our homes and declare our #RenterPower!

Fight for our homes.

Fight for our neighborhoods.

Fight for our communities.

Take the #RenterPower Pledge to take action 9.22.2016 today!

See you in the streets, 
Homes For All Campaign
