Everyone Deserves a place to stay

Are you a renter?

Are you worried about your rent going up?

Us too.

Keep Virginia Home is a statewide coalition of renters, allies, unions, local governments, and local and state elected officials who believe our Commonwealth is for everyone—not just the wealthy—and that housing is a human right, not a commodity. 


Keep Virginia Home envisions a Commonwealth where:

  • local governments have real options and protect their people.

  • renters—1 in 3 Virginian households—are protected from extreme rent increases,

  • every family has not only a roof over their head but also a stable place to stay in a thriving community,

  • And we put the needs of the many over the greed of the few.


Advocates have been fighting for reasonable limits to rent increases since 2022. The campaign officially launched in 2026. 

Join us in fighting for a Virginia for all.
