Introduction to my Campaign

Posted on Help Alice Keep Her Home by Alice Green · October 18, 2016 1:18 PM

Fall, 2016 Update: We were surprised and delighted by the response we got to this, over 10,000 signatures in one weekend! It got the government's attention, and we ended up going to DC and meeting with HUD staff and shifting FHA policy. But since differences in city and federal guidelines around our unique community are keeping us from pursuing this path (for now), and I'd rather do this in a way that benefits my friends and neighbors rather than a big commercial bank, I'm making do with what I have for now, and continuing to work, and with my neighbor Raines and others we're researching and co-creating  community alternatives, like a Revolving Loan Fund and/or Permanent Real Estate Coop, perhaps in partnership with a Land Trust and Community Loan Fund. Read the recent articles in this section for more.

The Original Petition to HUD

Posted on Help Alice Keep Her Home by Alice Green · April 15, 2014 3:35 PM

My name is Alice Green and I'm 72 years old. For more than 20 years, I've lived in a wonderful cohousing condominium community in Berkeley, California.

(This was the kickoff of our campaign with PEERS through Change.org to help Alice back in April, 2014. We have since pursued alternative creative approaches engaging directly with neighbors and potential lenders - see the main Help-Alice section for our current approach. We're keeping this here just for the sake of history, even though it no longer reflects our approach)
