Description

Douglas County is stepping up to fund critical legal roles at the Self-Help Center to combat evictions, including a district court navigator and eviction diversion coordinator—both of whose grants expire soon—plus exploring expanded legal access with licensed attorneys. The county also plans to bolster courthouse security with two new deputy positions, all while managing the budget to keep property taxes steady. Early results from the tenant defense pilot show promising success, with no one turned away so far.
