Keep Your Home California is partnering with the Alliance of Californians for Community Empowerment (ACCE) to host three foreclosure prevention workshops in three different cities in June. At the events, homeowners will have the opportunity to learn how they may qualify for up to $100,000 in mortgage payment assistance, as well as apply for program assistance with certified Keep Your Home California counselors.
The first event will be held at the Rural Community Assistance Corporation office in West Sacramento on June 6 from 10am-2pm. A flyer for the event has been posted on our website and anyone interested in attending can call (855) 286-4912 ext. 9 to register for the event or get more information. The next two events will be held on June 20 in Oakland and on June 27 in Los Angeles. More information about those two events will be posted on the Keep Your Home California Calendar of Events webpage soon.
