HOME Line is a private, nonprofit serving tenants in the State of Minnesota (except Minneapolis). HOME Line services include tenant advocacy, primarily through call-in information and advice, and tenant organizing so that groups of tenants can work together on common problems. Legal advocacy includes free legal representation in some eviction cases. Volunteer attorneys are needed primarily to assist low-income tenants with evictions, lockouts and repair issues.
