With generous support from the Hartford Foundation for Public Giving and the Melville Charitable Trust, CSH recently launched a new series of trainings and events designed for supportive housing providers across Connecticut. Beyond Housing Stability was kicked off on September 13 with an in-person training in Hartford on Eviction Prevention for Single Site Supportive Housing Developments.
The next training on October 30, 2017 from 9:30am-11:30am will feature the Connecticut Legal Rights Project (CLRP) presenting: Navigating the Eviction Process and Accessing Legal Assistance.
This in-person training is designed to teach providers about the eviction process and tenant rights/landlord responsibilities. Nicole Seawright, with the Connecticut Legal Rights Project (CLRP), will provide participants with strategies they can use with their tenants prior to the landlord filing an eviction, the nuts and bolts of the eviction process once it has started, and when and how to access appropriate legal services. This training will also cover how to identify and address housing discrimination or other problems, accommodations, and modifications in order to secure and sustain housing.
