National League of Cities: How to Use ARPA Funds to Improve Local Data on Evictions

The National League of Cities is hosting a webinar on How to Use ARPA Funds to Improve Local Data on Evictions on Wednesday, February 14^th, from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM.

Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, the city of Alexandria, Virginia used American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds to stand up and maintain a local eviction database. The new resource has helped policymakers, housing advocates, and legal aid organizations develop data-driven responses to housing insecurity and keep residents in their homes.  Join New America and the National League of Cities to learn how state and local governments can use ARPA funds to collect, share, and analyze eviction data. Representatives from the city of Alexandria will share their experience ahead of a Q&A session with Karen Lash, a legal aid expert who will provide strategies for how to leverage this funding to build local capacity to better understand evictions.
