About This Episode

Many Americans are one car accident, job loss, or medical emergency away from missing their rent payment. When a family is evicted, the damage is profound and lasting. Being evicted increases childhood trauma, mental health struggles, and breaks continuity in schools and communities.
Amy Krulik, executive director at hope+door, joins the podcast to discuss the eviction crisis and solutions to prevent evictions, which ultimately benefit the property owner. By partnering with hope+door, property managers save money, retain residents, and prevent the destabilization that evictions cause communities and portfolios. Hope+door’s support is funded almost entirely by the multifamily housing industry—owners and suppliers who know the cost of eviction and choose to be part of the solution. This approach aligns with social impact and business success goals—it’s not a charity, it’s a strategy.
