Food 4 Thought: Know Your Rights - Renting in BC 101

Whether you’re a first-year student settling into your very first rental, or a returning student who’s been renting for a while—this workshop is for you.

Join us for Food 4 Thought: Know Your Rights – Renting in BC 101, a practical and empowering workshop hosted by your Students’ Union. In partnership with Together Against Poverty Society (TAPS), this session is designed for students who are already renting and want to better understand their rights and responsibilities in BC’s rental system.

You’ll learn about:

• How to deal with landlord issues

• Conducting condition inspections

• Getting your damage deposit back

• Key local resources for renters in Nanaimo

Enjoy a free catered lunch while gaining real-world knowledge you can use throughout your tenancy. Please let us know about any allergies or dietary restrictions when you RSVP.

What's for lunch? Roast Chicken and BBQ Pork Ribs with roasted potatoes, seasonal vegetables, desserts and non-alcoholic beverages.

Part of the Food 4 Thought series—an opportunity for a healthy meal, thoughtful conversation, and learning—this event is organized by your Director of External Relations, Brandi Klee.
