Katie Davis, Director of PBRC's Courtroom Advocacy Project, co-wrote an article for Shelterforce about a case in Maryland where parents and school leaders joined with housing advocates to win additional rental assistance, targeted to families in the state's community schools.

"Partnership between PBRC and numerous community school coordinators in Baltimore City has resulted in outreach to school communities about tenants’ rights and resources for low-income renters at school food banks and back-to-school events. PBRC looks to the community school coordinators to learn about the specific needs of the community, and the school communities benefit from the resources and easy access to a legal services organization.”
