We help Tenants, Landlords and Service Providers
The Tenant Resource Center offers free information to tenants, landlords and service providers interested in learning more about their rental rights and responsibilities.
Unfortunately, our funding for services outside Dane County was cut during the administration of Governor Scott Walker and has not been restored. While we would like to provide our services to everyone in Wisconsin, these budget cuts prevent us from doing so.
With your help, we can resume serving all Wisconsin residents. Please consider making a one time donation, or a monthly donation to help us expand and keep our services free!
