Support the Freedom of the Press – The Fight Goes On

Jane Addams Senior Caucus

Chicago, IL, United States

Jane Addams Senior Caucus educates and empowers residents of subsidized housing to challenge unsafe and unsanitary living conditions, preserve long-term affordability, and advocate for policies that protect tenants’ rights. Its whole-tenant organizing model centers women, children, and seniors—groups most vulnerable to housing instability—and focuses exclusively on Project-Based Section 8 (PBS8) housing.
