The program will provide: an overview of the foreclosure problem in New York City; a summary of the foreclosure process; and a description of the impact of foreclosures on tenants, including their rights to obtain repairs and prevent evictions during and after foreclosure. The presenters will cover new developments in the area over the past year.

The program will also cover hard-to-reach homeowners who are especially vulnerable to foreclosures. Presenters will discuss how to engage these homeowners and review resources and specialized foreclosure prevention services provided by the City of New York and not-for-profit organizations.
