The goal of foreclosure mediation is for homeowners to have an opportunity to discuss options as alternatives to foreclosure, to provide parties with the ability to review programs that could assist in continued payment of mortgages, to review documentation with their bank or lender, and as a last resort, to discuss opportunities and timelines for a “graceful exit” from their homes.

Homeowners facing foreclosure can contact a specialist by phone for help understanding their rights, accessing resources and tools, and connecting to advocates that provide hands on help.
