Are you working on building a better coalition of services for tenants at risk of eviction, or who have recently been evicted?
You may try a 1-2 hour Service Mapping exercise to build a better regional coalition & establish a resource directory that different legal, financial, housing, and government groups can use to connect people with local resources that can help them.
Our team has made a Service Mapping template whiteboard, that you can use on Mural (an online whiteboard application). This whiteboard can help you run a Service Mapping session with your regional group. Find instructions on how to run this session at the How-To Guide from the Eviction Prevention Learning Lab.
Does your region have a problem with informal or illegal evictions, that happen outside of court? This new report from New America can help you understand how to measure what is happening in your community.
A national letter-writing tool for tenants, that integrates local law — during the COVID-19 pandemic. Tenants can use the tool to write a letter that protects their rights and documents their issues — and also send the letter to the landlord.
