Homeownership Preservation Initiative Program Chicago

If you are struggling and need help this is the program I wrote about earlier that you can contact through the city's non-emergency 311 program.

Homeownership Preservation Initiative Partnership
For more information, contact: Michael van Zalingen

Launched in 2003, Chicago’s Homeownership Preservation Initiative (HOPI) program, under the city’s Neighborhood Housing Services department, is a partnership working to help homeowners avoid foreclosure.

Chicago homeowners at risk of foreclosure can contact HOPI through a 311 hotline, through community-based partner organizations, or be referred by their lenders.

HOPI utilizes several strategies to assist homeowners: face-to-face counseling along with loans to bring borrowers current or help with property repairs; phone-based foreclosure services through the 311 hotline; and partnerships with loan servicers to hold neighborhood-based mortgage workshops.
