    2750 McNair Drive, Robbinsdale, MN        Phone: 763-529-3571 

Linda Norenberg’s remodification agreement is solid-she will remain in her family home as long as she wants! She is inviting all of you who supported her during those long, difficult months. Join us in congratulating her on the victory! Together with support from family and organizations and especially her lawyer, Linda stood her family ground and won. 
 
Leslie Parks will be onhand too as she continues to gain ground in her fight to own her home. She is building up her credit rating that had been shattered in the struggle for many months to try to meet fraudulently huge loan payments. She is celebrating mini-victories at every stage of the process, with her eye always on the prize. Both Linda and Leslie keep repeating: “NEVER, NEVER GIVE UP!”
 
Meanwhile, more U.S. homeowners and renters are facing eviction as economic conditions and joblessness worsen. FYI, MNPPEHRC is now part of a USA-Canada Alliance of Inhabitants (see detail below re. the International Alliance of Inhabitants). Stay tuned for developments at the national level. 
The International Alliance of Inhabitants: the solidarity network for the right to housing without
frontiers (IAI) was founded in 2003, is a sponsor of the Zero Evictions Campaign in many countries on every continent, is a promoter of the Urban Popular University, has launched the creation of the Unitary Space of Urban Social Movements counting over 200 members from more than 30 countries, which is only the first step in the creation of the Urban Way.
It has actively participated in the new global movement and is a member of the International Council of the FSM. It collaborates with the institutions, in particular with the Local Authorities Forum, with profound respect for the reciprocal autonomy of each organization.
Some of its members are in the UN-Habitat Advisory Group on Forced Evictions, participating in missions to investigate and mediate in areas considered hot spots for evictions.
