Jacksonville Tenants' Union is an grassroots community organization that was founded by tenants of a HUD housing complex in Jacksonville, following the severe beating and abduction of a disabled woman from their building.
This issue was compounded by a vulgar and incompetant property manager that sent a letter to all the disabled and elderly tenants, telling them, ''If you dont like it - MOVE!''
Shortly thereafter, JTU was formed and took action to ''evict'' both the property manager and the management company, and reclaim their right to competant management, and restore a safe environment.
