ABOUT THE MINNESOTA
FORECLOSURE PARTNERS COUNCIL
The goal of the Minnesota Foreclosure Partners Council
is to identify, fund, and implement coordinated policies
and
programs that effectively address the impact of the recent
surge in mortgage foreclosures on families, neighborhoods,
and communities.
Partners confront the practice and consequences
of predatory and inappropriate lending by taking specific,
innovative, and collaborative action including changes
in policies and practices and the provision of resources.
