Chair Hudson asks Akira Morris why she did not lose her apartment
Hudson asks Morris why she did not lose the apartment despite the delays. Morris says she constantly emailed Homebase and visited HRA almost daily to check on payments and status, acting as the middleman herself.
And then for Ms.
Morris, what kept you...
In the apartment.
I know you expressed some challenges, but you said you almost lost the apartment.
Do you know why you didn't lose the apartment?
Because I played the middleman, so I was consistently, me and the landlord was consistently emailing home base, and I was going to HRA
almost like every day to see what the status of the rent, the checks before, the payment checks and, you know, the situation is.
Okay.
And I guess, you know, from my perspective, I always ask the question of, this is a rhetorical question, not one for you to answer, but what if somebody
is in the exact same situation as you and does not have the time to do all of that, doesn't speak the language to play middle person, right?
What happens to them?
Then they may have been kicked out of that apartment.
And then...
