Thank you @CiraNareb , @ClergyIndy , @IndyMultifaith , @INJProject , @INHP_Home , and @intendindiana for partnering with us to host this amazing speaker and start this important conversation. 🏘️📚❤️
There's nothing like a successful event with amazing speakers, steadfast community partners, and a phenomenal turnout by our fellow Hoosiers to #inspire us to continue to fight to protect local access to safe, affordable, accessible #housing, free from discrimination. THANK YOU!

🚨 🧵: Renter protections during the pandemic were a lifesaver for many. But many still fell through the cracks. Our new analysis shows that the mortality rate for tenants who were evicted doubled during this period as compared to before COVID-19. evictionlab.org/eviction-was…

In one of my last stories for @indystar, this family let @mykalmphoto and me tell of how a 3-minute eviction hearing sent their lives into a tailspin. How Indianapolis tenants suffer from big disparities in the city's 9 township eviction courts. indystar.com/story/news/loca…
