Our Programs
Housing Counseling
We provide free information and referrals on rental rights and responsibilities to tenants and landlords in Dane County. Services are available to those who call, email, or drop by our offices. We also provide sample letters, forms, and more information on most major topics. Services are available in English and Spanish.
This service was previously available statewide. Unfortunately, due to recent funding cuts, this service is only available for those living in the City of Madison and Dane County. Want to help us restore this service statewide? Visit our Take Action page for more information.
Eviction Diversion and Defense Partnership
TRC’s Eviction Diversion and Defense Partnership ("EDDP") aims to improve housing stability for Dane County tenants by providing housing support, housing counseling, court navigation, mediation services, and rental assistance. We also refer eligible tenants whose housing stability is at risk to partner attorneys who provide legal representation at no cost to tenants.
Time is of the essence; the fastest way to connect with our staff is to walk in to our offices.
Housing Mediation Services
We administer a program in which mediators facilitate negotiations between tenants and landlords during the Small Claims Court eviction hearing each week in order to prevent homelessness. Mediators may also be available for Dane County out-of-court mediation depending on program capacity. Mediation services are only for Dane County residents (free service at Small Claims Court for evictions; fees for out-of-court mediations may apply).
UW Madison
We offer services tailored for students at UW-Madison. We staff an office at the Student Activity Center (hours vary by semester) and give presentations around campus. Contact us if you are interested in a campus presentation.
Community Outreach and Education
We provide outreach and education through our local workshops and written materials. We give informative presentations around Wisconsin, are available for media interviews, and participate in community coalitions. Contact us if you are interested in working with us in any of these capacities. A fee is required for workshops, presentations, or day seminars outside of Dane County.
