Home for Good: Strategies to Prevent Eviction and Promote Housing Stability

We posit that an upstream approach — systematic, sustainable strategies to ensure renters have the resources they need to pay for their home — is key to reducing eviction and increasing housing stability. This research and related roadmap were made possible through the generous support of the Center for Disaster Philanthropy and JPMorgan Chase & Co.
