At the height of COVID-19, more than 10 million U.S. renter households were delinquent in rent and as many as 23 million faced a significant possibility of eviction. The federal government responded to that crisis with a series of eviction restrictions and rental assistance funds, supplemented by state and local initiatives in much of the country. Renters now in the transition period out of COVID-19 face a host of new challenges: increasing rents across the country, admission barriers tied to pandemic-era rental history, and renewed hostility to rent subsidies and income supports.
This webinar will survey lingering programs and protections available to tenants in the aftermath of COVID-19, emerging new laws aimed at helping tenants cope with new realities, and key legal arguments for tenants encountering common post-pandemic difficulties.
Participants will:
Understand the ways in which Home and Community Based Services (HCBS) and access to housing intersect to support the ability of older adults to age in place;
Gain familiarity with new and emerging issues in the landlord-tenant law space; and
Be acquainted with lingering policies and protections from the COVID-19 era and new laws enacted to help tenants who were affected financially during the pandemic.
Presenter: Eric Dunn, Director of Litigation, NHLP
