THIS WEEK - JESSE TREE
Our speaker this week will be Katie McInally, Community Engagement Manager for Jesse Tree.
 
Jesse Tree provides financial assistance coupled with case management to households at risk of eviction and homelessness who are unable to pay rent. Case management includes landlord mediation, budgeting help, and housing stability planning, while financial assistance catches people up on the rent that they owe. Jesse Tree also supports households in eviction court to keep them from getting an eviction on their record and out of homelessness.
