Caldwell Renters Speak
We are staff and volunteers at the Ferro for Idaho campaign who have been hearing the concerns of renters all over Caldwell. Our Caldwell Renters speak project is specifically focused on gathering the stories of renters. Our goals are to:
Make the experience of renters more visible in our community.
Develop initiatives that will improve the lives of renters.
Impact renter's rights and other policy decisions.
