Mission and programs · 2022

Mission

NLS performs legal work to allow blighted and abandoned urban core properties to be turned into good quality housing for low income families. We also assist and support the efforts of neighborhood organizations in the urban core area to address abandoned housing issues.

Activities or mission (Part I)

The Neighborhood Legal Support (NLS) mission is to provide legal assistance and other support to empower urban core neighborhoods to grow stronger.

  • Neighborhood Legal Support pursued litigation involving approximately 50 blighted properties to get the property owners to make repairs to their properties to turn them into good quality homes. If the owners refused, we pursued litigation to require them to repair or give up the properties. We have run out of blighted and abandoned properties to pursue in the Lykins Neighborhood and have started a second focused community development project in the Oak Park Neighborhood. We recruited, screened and monitored rehabbers and builders to turn blighted houses in the Lykins neighborhood into good quality, affordable homes for working families. As part of this work, we led the neighborhood in reviewing applications of rehabbers to repair approximately 15 blighted houses. We oversaw programing of several activities in the neighborhood. Notably, when we started the project the Lykins Square Park was regularly a crime scene. Now, it is a wonderful, healthy hub for the community. Roughly 160 neighborhood children now practice soccer in the Park 4 nights per week. We also oversee English as a second language classes and computer literacy classes at the Lykins Community Resource Center, which we had built.

    Revenue $12,000

  • .

  • We made substantial progress towards completion of the Lykins Community Resource Center. It's a 1,300 square foot, new building that will house major community meetings and educational programming starting in 2022.

    Expenses $693,313 · Grants $180,777 · Revenue $12,000

On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
