Know Your Rights: Join Us for a Free Renter’s Rights Training

Renting in Maui can be challenging, especially in the wake of the growing housing crisis following the 2023 wildfires. Many renters face issues like unclear lease terms, unexpected eviction notices, or difficulties getting their security deposits back. Landlords may not be clear on what the landlord tenant code actually says. (HINT: It often doesn’t say what we assume it should.) That’s why it’s more important than ever to know your rights!

Maui Housing Hui invites you to a FREE Renter’s Rights Training on March 24th from 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM at the J. Walter Cameron Center. This event is designed to equip renters and landlords with the knowledge they need to navigate housing challenges and make informed decisions.

What You’ll Learn:

📌 Understanding your lease agreements
📌 Security deposits—what’s allowed and what’s not
📌 What to do if you receive an a notice to vacate
📌 Rights regarding assistance animals
📌 When to seek legal help
📌 Community resources available to anyone who is struggling here on Maui

We know that many families are juggling work, school, and other responsibilities, so we always provide free food and childcare when we invite you to spend dinnertime at our event, making it easier for you to attend!

This training is open to all Maui renters and landlords, whether you’ve been renting for years or are new to the process. The more informed we are as a community, the stronger we become in advocating for fair housing policies and practices. When everyone understands their rights, people stay housed.

Make Your Voice Heard

Maui’s rental landscape is evolving, and we all deserve stability and transparency. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn valuable information, ask questions, and connect with local resources that can help you on your housing journey.

📅 Mark your calendars: March 24th, 5:00 PM – 7:00 PM
📍 J. Walter Cameron Center, Wailuku
🎟 FREE Event | Free Food & Childcare Provided

👉 Bring with a friend, spread the word, and let’s make sure everyone on Maui knows their rights!

    1. Thanks Deva! Scheduling the RRT Events is based on the calendar at the Cameron Center. We also intend to vary the day and time we offer this event to give community members more opportunities to attend. If you can’t make this one, maybe the next one will work better! 🙂
