SMASH is a non-profit co-op and community land trust building power for housing and climate justice!
Our mission is the creation of a multi-purpose space that will adequately address the needs of inner-city Miami residents affected by the symptoms of gentrification (slumlords, rising rents, lack of community control), and that is shaped, developed and implemented by those same residents.

UNION SCHOOL 2026 ✏️ Learn more at bit.ly/unionschool26 Applications due JUNE 15 🗓️
Union School is an intensive tenant union training. Applications are now open.
The training will take place weekly over Zoom from July to October. It covers TUF’s Path to Supermajority, Strike-Ready Tenant Unions.
Trainers from TUF locals—including tenants who have organized their own properties, rent strikers, and members of TUF’s research team—will train on landlord research, scouting, organizing conversations, leadership assessment, blitz, demands, union launch, target analysis, communications, strategy, bargaining, and strikes.
Union School is a skills training. It is not a training on theory, and it is not a book club. Applicants are encouraged to come with a team of at least three tenants, and participants will be required to pick a property to organize, receiving assignments in each session.
Last year Union School support union launches in every nook and cranny of the country— from Albany, to Cincinnati, to Missoula, to Colorado Springs, to Detroit— and those tenants have gone on to win big. This year we want more unions, more power, more wins.
