WHAT: Learn how the relief program works, who qualifies and how to apply for it. Help give your audiences information that could get real dollars in their pockets to compensate for unfair foreclosure proceedings. WHO: Representatives of the Federal Reserve Bank and key housing counseling agencies plus homeowners who have been approved for relief. A public interest attorney and housing experts will also be available. WHY: The Federal Reserve and Office of the Comptroller of the Currency announced the Independent Foreclosure Review program in 2011 but very few people know it exists. Of the millions of Americans caught up in the foreclosure process, less than 250,000 have applied. There's a huge information gap -- and people may be suspicious unless they hear about the program from a trusted messenger.
