A Campaign to Increase Access to Stable, Affordable Housing

Tennessee’s tenant screening protections project grew out of a statewide collaboration led by Statewide Organizing for Community eMpowerment (SOCM) and the Greater Memphis Housing Justice Project to address unfair tenant screening practices and expand housing access across Tennessee. After participating in Unlocked: Opening the Door to Housing Access Through Tenant Screening Protections—an eight-week national Solutions Sprint hosted by Results for America and partner organizations—the team built a 20-person campaign focused on public education, community-informed research, advocacy with state and local leaders, and the development of a policy agenda for tenant screening protections.
