SUMMARY:Rent is Due: Day of Action - 4/1/22
DESCRIPTION:Our vision is that all people have a home. The pandemic and economic crisis have been building into an eviction crisis\, which could add to the already too large number of people experiencing unsheltered homelessness. We cannot let this happen\, and home is the solution. \nWe need Bring it Home\, Minnesota\, a rent support program that will allow all low-income Minnesotans the security and reassurance of home. \nOn Friday\, April 1\, join us on Zoom at 8:30 a.m. for a thirty-minute update meeting\, where we will learn more about the growing crisis\, and reflect on how to take action together. This meeting will have Closed Captions available. \nPlease register below to let us know you will participate and to receive further instructions on how to access the meeting.
