Ramsey County is still paying off back rent through multiple departments and funding streams in eviction courts over here. Just wanted to add in case people thought this was happening everywhere.

Yes. Case managers in permanent supportive housing programs (which those nonprofits are providing) are holding the world together in my opinion.

during the covid eviction moratorium those programs suffered, basing my nuance-conclusion on that experience. it's to say those programs are dead to me for this idk. what a shit sandwich all around.

just wondering if you worked on their housing side of things, or their emergency services side of things? working on the housing side after years of emergency services only (back to emergency services now) gave me a lot of nuance to this whole thing

Hockey dominates, curling splits matches as Minnesotans compete in first events of Winter Paralympics Two Minnesotans played their first games as part of the U.S. ice hockey team on Saturday, helping the team beat out Italy 14-1.

On a brighter note, Minnesota has more Paralympians than any other state. Read about our athletes:
