CSC is participating in a new foreclosure prevention program



The Mortgage Payment Assistance Unemployment Program (MPA-U) is a new foreclosure prevention program from the Oregon Homeownership Stabilization Initiative (OHSI). MPA-U helps approved homeowners pay their mortgages for up to one year, or up to $20,000, whichever comes first. MPOA-U is available to qualified homeowners that are currently receiving Unemployment Insurance.

Program qualifications include, but are not limited to:
Participant must be receiving Unemployment Insurance at the time of application
Participant property must be a single-family, detached residence
Participant property must be a primary residence
Participant may not be in active bankruptcy

Welcome to CSC's blog and e-newsletter!

These communications tools can be used to make announcements, acknowledge donors and volunteers, post videos and slideshows–whatever we want to share with our online community.

There are 3 ways to deliver info to stakeholders:

  1. The blog itself, which can be linked to our current website
  2. Email news blasts (blog articles sent via email as eNewsletters)
  3. RSS Feed (subscribers read in Google Reader or other feed reader, can also send posts to Facebook and Twitter)
We're excited about these communication tools and look forward to both your input and feedback for continuing improvement and positive information-sharing.

If you have agency/program information you'd like posted on this blog, please send full text and/or photos and videos, ideas, or suggestions to Janet Hessel and she will take the next steps.

Enjoy!
