Help If You’re Facing Eviction

Missouri Tenant Help offers free, easy-to-use, and mobile-friendly resources to Missouri tenants facing eviction or other housing needs. Our EDDE (Eviction Defense Document Engine) is accessible to tenants, attorneys, paralegals, or anyone helping a tenant.

Missouri Tenant Help is proudly funded by HUD (U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development) and is supported by legal aid organizations across Missouri.

If your landlord is evicting you, EDDE (Eviction Defense Document Engine) can help you create your own court documents to fight your eviction for free.

How it works

EDDE (Eviction Defense Document Engine) asks you questions and uses your answers to complete your court forms. You can save, edit, email, download, and print your completed forms. You will get instructions to help with your next steps.
