National United Tenant Union
About NUTU
The National United Tenant Union (NUTU) is a nationwide network of tenant-led organizations working together to protect housing rights, promote equity, and build stronger communities. We believe that every resident deserves safe, stable, and affordable housing, and that real change begins when tenants unite and raise their voices together.
Through collaboration, education, and advocacy, NUTU empowers local tenant unions to organize effectively, share resources, and influence housing policy at every level. By connecting movements across the country, we amplify the collective power of renters and ensure their voices are heard where it matters most.
Together, we’re building a national movement for housing justice, one community at a time.
Our Mission
At the National United Tenant Union, our mission is to strengthen tenant power through unity, education, and action. We work to ensure that every renter, regardless of income, background, or location, has access to safe, affordable, and dignified housing.
We connect tenant unions across the country, providing tools, training, and support to help local leaders organize, advocate, and win real change. From fighting unfair evictions to influencing housing policy, NUTU stands alongside communities in the pursuit of housing justice for all.
Together, we’re not just tenants, we’re a powerful national movement for equity and respect.
