Queer Power Alliance

Our Homes, Our Power: Housing Justice is Q***r Justice 🌈✊

Join QPA and for this community-centered workshop that helps renters better understand their rights, learn about tenant protections, identify common housing issues, and know where to turn for support. We aim to make the information accessible and welcoming, with a particular focus on LGBTQIA+ renters and other communities that may experience barriers or discrimination in housing.

Seattle Ban RUBS is a grassroots, volunteer-based campaign of tenants across Seattle organizing to ban the Ratio Utility Billing System (RUBS). RUBS is a sneaky way landlords charge for utilities that aren't individually used or over which tenants have no control, making housing costs more expensive and less transparent.
