Housing Contract Playbooks: Let's work with WUSA's legal partners to equip students with all the knowledge they need to face Waterloo's major landlords.
Landlord Review Board: UWFlow for landlords and buildings. Let's share our experiences and hold landlords accountable!
Government Advocacy: Let's continue the great work of the previous WUSA board and the 2021 Housing Report, stepping up advocacy for loophole closing and protections for students.

Reason why someone should vote for you in 100 words or less
Housing: a chaotic free-for-all every 4 or 12 months. According to the 2021 WUSA Housing Report, we pay more in rent than employed households while suffering from illegal clauses that we're too desperate or unaware to fend off.
I'm running to drive housing action: here's my plan.
In the short term, we augment what's under our control: contract guidebooks, landlord review platform, sublet resources, StudentCare pipeline review.
Over the long term, we push for systemic solutions: advocating at the municipal and provincial level to close loopholes, investigate housing affordability support, and expand student protections.
