Why was New Orleans’ Right to Counsel defunded in the mayor’s proposed budget when the program effectively and efficiently prevents evictions and homelessness, and saves the City of New Orleans precious dollars in a budget crisis?

LaFHAC’s executive director, Ameca Reali, and Frank Southall of with the Big Easy Budget Coalition provide analysis on the need to fully fund the Right to Counsel program and it’s impact on the people of New Orleans in this op-ed in The Lens.

“Ensuring this critical program continues is an investment in homelessness prevention and the stabilization of families who are feeling the strain of rising rents, groceries, gasoline and other daily essentials without the relief or the promise of a pay raise in sight.”

Everyone deserves representation in court when at risk of losing their homes!

Orleans Parish’s Right to Counsel Program, which provides free legal defense in eviction court, is in danger of ending if City Council doesn’t act now to fully fund the program at $2.5M. The Right to Counsel Program has a proven track record of stabilizing families, reducing displacement and preventing homelessness since it began in 2022. Tell City Council now to fully fund the Right to Counsel Program and keep New Orleanians in New Orleans! Link in bio.
