Time to Repeal the 3-Unrelated Rule in Evanston
Today it's illegal for more than three unrelated adults to share an apartment or house. This means that four people with low incomes cannot rent a house and split the costs so that each of them has enough money left over to live on. Joining Forces is actively advocating for this law to be repealed. Read more here.
Calendar Updated for April
​Check out the March Affordable Housing Calendar--it's got municipal meetings, Joining Forces meetings and workshops, candidate forums, and more.
