Preventing Eviction

Alan has decreased cognitive functioning making it difficult for him to complete essential tasks. Finances are especially difficult for him to navigate. As a result of unintentional neglect, Alan’s disability housing benefits have been interrupted. He now owes $3,211.34 in rent arrears and his landlord has contacted the Landlord and Tenant Board to file for an eviction. London Cares can cover $2,552.30 of that but there is a shortfall of $659.30. We checked with the landlord and if full payment of these arrears is made, Alan’s eviction process will be withdrawn. So, for less than $700 we have helped to keep a roof over Alan’s head.
