"All township trustees should be just as responsive and helpful as the folks at Wayne, but too many are not." If all the trustees did what they're charged to do we wouldn't have an evictions crisis.
Clinical Professor at Indiana University Robert H. McKinney School of Law; Director of Health and Human Rights Clinic
Thanks to Mirror Indy and Sophie Young and Tyler Fenwick for this article about the hugely important work being done at the Wayne Township Trustee Office. Trustee assistance can be a literal life-saver, and these offices all over the state of Indiana receive taxpayer funds to provide that help. All township trustees should be just as responsive and helpful as the folks at Wayne, but too many are not. This article provides a model for what should be happening--and contact info for the other trustees so that people in crisis can seek the help they need and deserve. Our clinic represents people who have been wrongly denied trustee assistance, so we hope that articles like this can lead to better responses to people in crisis.

Roam's not in Indiana yet, but close by. It lists homes for sale that have assumable mortgages. Clever?!

"TUF organizers say that the coordinated strike aims to build leverage that forces the hand of the Federal Housing Finance Agency to do something—specifically, to codify tenant protections for all landlords that receive loans backstopped by the FHFA." https://buff.ly/40n8M0W

In 2017, New York City began rolling out a program that guaranteed lawyers to low-income tenants in certain ZIP codes. Evictions were reduced by half, and a study published yesterday in JAMA Pediatrics found the program was also associated with a 0.96% reduction in preterm births and infants born at low weights. That may sound minor but it’s statistically significant, and translates to 600 fewer adverse birth outcomes each year. https://buff.ly/4erFvWp
