The City of Madison knows that no one likes evictions. They’re painful, messy and costly. So they’re funding a program to provide free lawyers to tenants facing eviction. They mediate conflicts - or miscommunication - between tenants and landlords, and work out solutions.

And it’s been shockingly effective.

Carousel Bayrd of Community Justice, Inc is one of these lawyers.
