“Home is at the center for my family. Going through a divorce is hard enough. Raising 6 kids is pretty tough too. I did that while going to college full-time. When my ex-husband and I separated, he stopped paying the mortgage for a year. I had no idea until I came home to find foreclosure papers.
My heart sank. I felt like everything that I worked for was about to be taken away.
I called Northwest Justice Project. We quickly turned to mortgage mediation. NJP and my mortgage company worked as a team to help me. Everyone was on the same wavelength. The mortgage company modified the loan and rolled over payments into a new loan. I was able to keep my house.
My family just needed some advocacy. The work that NJP does literally changes the trajectory of people’s lives.”
