NEW: Jasmin Belanger believed the deal was simple: pay off what she owed, and her landlord would let her keep her housing. It wasn’t until months later that she learned it had left her with a permanent record of an eviction — despite there never being one. With @bangordailynews.bsky.social

Vienna is the global capital of social housing, and is regularly ranked as the world's most livable city. Our new report, featured in this @npr.org exclusive, explores Vienna’s green social housing—home to the majority of its renters—and how it can work here. www.npr.org/2025/06/15/n...

Vienna has a way to make affordable housing and combat climate change all at the same time. Now U.S. cities want in, and they're building their own green housing.

Bee's home filled with ash during the wildfires. Holly pays $350/month to heat her studio apt. Desperate for safety & change, both turned to a trusted source: the tenant union. The climate crisis hits tenants hardest, but tenants are fighting back. I wrote about it in @shelterforce.bsky.social

In the next four years, tenant unions will deepen their organizing. They'll win safer homes, fairer leases, and local regulatory policies, all of which can build the blueprint for national change. Great to write some on this and more w/ @taraghuveer.bsky.social in @theprospect.bsky.social

Over lifetime, each additional year of union membership reduces the odds of mortality by 1.5%. Effects primarily occur between ages of 41 and 67. Nice work @tvanheuvelen.bsky.social www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

In a new JAMA study from our collaboration with the Census Bureau, we find that mortality rates among renters threatened with eviction more than doubled during the first phase of the pandemic: evictionlab.org/eviction-was...

In a new study from our collaboration with the Census Bureau, we demonstrate that both rising rents and evictions are associated with increased risk of death: evictionlab.org/rising-rents...

Eviction cases affect households, but the court cases normally name just one person. Until now, the full impact of these cases remained invisible. Our latest research shows that 7.6 million people are threatened with eviction every year (a thread following...). www.nytimes.com/2023/10/02/u...
