Find a Tenant Advocate

The Vancouver Tenants Union is a network of renters working in solidarity with one another to educate, agitate and organize for housing justice. Our union is not meant to replace a long list of existing social services and legal advocacy organizations that already exist. If you are in need of legal advice or advocacy, consider contacting one of these organizations.
