What We’re Up To

Attend a general meeting, and find more information about MTU committees and activities.

About General Meetings

The Missoula Tenants Union meets the first Wednesday of every month for General Meetings. These are used to update the full membership and prospective members about what happened in committee meetings and what actions members and committees have engaged in outside of committees. General meetings are also used for any necessary voting or elections.

In addition to the business listed above, general meetings are also an important community space for all union members! Voting is great, but a sense of solidarity is even more important.

About Social and Committee Meetings

The Missoula Tenants Union meets the third Wednesday of every month for Social & Committee Meetings. These are used to allow people time to connect with one another, as well as time for committees to do work on particular tasks.

Please check Instagram and Facebook for up-to-date meeting times and locations!
