If you are a homeowner who has not been making payments on your mortgage and now you are having a problem getting back on track with your mortgage, you may be eligible for help from a new legal aid foreclosure defense project, Oregon Homeowner Legal Assistance (OHLA).
If you are low/moderate income and face any COVID-related financial hardship that threatens your homeownership (defaults, lender refusals to modify your loan, etc.) you should seek if OHLA can help you by calling Oregon Homeowner Legal Assistance: 1-855-503-2598. 
A MUST-READ if you are or anticipate being in the market to buy a car anytime soon. And for everyone else, a good article to read anyway -- you never know when someone will smash your car for you by driving inattentively and you will be in the market to buy a car on short notice.
 Oregon Consumer Justice (OCJ) is making money available to community-based organizations working to support tenants in accessing rent assistance payments or making applications for rent assistance.
There's more information and a link to the application here: https://lnkd.in/gu7JBAzz Many organizations, community leaders, and individuals are hard at work trying to help prevent evictions, which are traumatic and have far-reaching impact on people's well-being. Spread the word about this resource which might help reach community members who don't know there's help available or don't have the ability to access that help. If you have questions, please direct them to either Janet Byrd at jbyrd@oregonconsumerjustice.org or Joseluis Maldonado at jlmaldonado@oregonconsumerjustice.org  The federal Consumer Protection Financial Bureau (CFPB) has a website where you can see if there is rental assistance money available that you can access in order to help you avoid eviction for failure to pay rent.
Check it out if you are behind in your rent or utility payments. https://www.consumerfinance.gov/coronavirus/mortgage-and-housing-assistance/renter-protections/find-help-with-rent-and-utilities/ Some elder advocate organizations have put together a pretty good online resource for helping you know how to keep your money safe as you age. (Elders are the main target of scammers.) https://thinkingaheadroadmap.org/money-path/intro Even if you think you have everything all set, it's worth looking these pages over. The Thinking Ahead Roadmap is for everyone, not just people with significant assets. It includes information specifically geared towards "solo agers" (who don't have an immediate family member or partner to step in) and people with complex personal situations. This new tool was designed by Dr. Marti DeLiema of the University of Minnesota and by Naomi Karp and Steve Vernon, research scholars at the Stanford Center on Longevity, with support from AARP and the Society of Actuaries. It's based on extensive research through interviews with experts from multiple disciplines (including elder law attorneys on this list - thanks for your help!), focus groups and an online community forum of over 100 older adults. In addition to the website itself, the roadmap is available in PDF form to download, as are additional helpful documents. In the future, it will be available for ordering in print. Please help spread the word about the Thinking Ahead Roadmap to your colleagues, clients, families and communities.  Oregon has an unclaimed property registry, currently in the Department of State Lands but moving to the State Treasury Office on July 1. You should check it once in a while - it's quick and easy. Just click https://unclaimed.unclaimed.oregon.gov/oregon.gov/ and enter your name.  Coder-turned-Attorney Robb Shector has further enhanced his first big online laws project from his law school days, the excellent online Oregon statutes depository (Oregonlaws.org). Robb has made that even more valuable by coming up with a way to provide a very smooth integration with the statutes from his version of the online Oregon Administrative Rules (OARs). Robb's OARs database now provides hotlinks to statutes so you can easily go check the statutes as you are researching the rules and then easily return to the rules. You can see Robb's administrative rules set here: https://oregon.public.law/rules (photo below of the entry page). Having worked with others (I don't have the technical chops to do the coding myself) to bring readable OARs to Oregonians for a long time (see OregonAdminRules.org tab at top of page), I know Robb put in an awful lot of work. Hats off to Robb for bringing this home at last. It's pathetic that the State of Oregon publishes statutes and rules in such a poorly designed format (all left-justified text that is all but impossible to use without extensive manual reformatting). It would require little or nothing by the state to give Oregonians these important publications in a clear, always-up-to-date, easy to use form, as Robb has shown.
