Our client & work are mentioned in the The New York Times by Matthew Desmond of Eviction Lab. Proud to have deployed $45MM in emergency rental assistance dollars to 10,700+ households thanks to City of Cleveland & Cuyahoga County. #housingstabilitymatters nytimes.com/2021/09/30/opi…

Dream mapping at session #2 of the Neighborhood Leadership Development Program #NLDP. Grateful to be in this space with so many empathetic & visionary Clevelanders 🙏

A third of people in the US live within 50 miles of a nuclear power plant (including those of us in Cleveland 👋). This article inspired me to do some mapping of Perry's demo data to see ~who~ lives in this 10 mile radiation zone. I have a few guesses... cleveland19.com/2021/10/15/lak…

Retweet if you believe housing is a right. Not a privilege.

Cleveland has a significant level of pent-up demand when it comes to civic engagement and advocacy at the City Hall level.
