Campus Community Coalition and WWU Associated Students to Host Tenant Safety Workshop Feb. 20

The Campus Community Coalition (CCC) and Western Washington University Associated Students (AS) will host a Tenant Safety Workshop from 10 a.m. to noon on Saturday, Feb. 20 in the Viking Union Multipurpose Room on the WWU campus.

The event is free and open to the public; breakfast will be provided for students.

This event is a shared project between the WWU AS Legal Information Center and the CCC to provide information to students about important off-campus life issues such as landlord-tenant difficulties and safety. There will also be a variety of speakers including the Bellingham Fire Department, City of Bellingham Rental Registration staff, Bellingham Emergency Management, and the Northwest Clean Air Agency.

The Campus Community Coalition is a partnership of community stakeholders, campus representatives and neighborhood organizations to address issues of mutual concern and to educate students as they are integrating into the Bellingham community.
