Foreclosure Prevention

Foreclosure Prevention Assistance Program (FPAP)
The Foreclosure Prevention Assistance Program assists Minnesotans facing foreclosure due to a temporary financial crisis by providing case management services and, if applicable, mortgage payment, or other financial assistance on a one time basis. The program is delivered through community-based nonprofit organizations statewide.

Don't Borrow Trouble
The DON'T BORROW TROUBLE Minnesota Campaign is a public education initiative aimed at stopping predatory lending practices in the Twin Cities seven-county metropolitan area. The Campaign seeks to educate families and individuals about how to avoid predatory lending scams and about available community resources. The DON'T BORROW TROUBLE help line has been established at 612-312-2020 to offer families a safe place to call before they sign anything that puts their home at risk.
