Renters: eviction-prevention seminar next week

If you're a tenant in need of help budgeting, saving money by saving energy and generally avoiding a situation where you can't pay your rent, the University of Maryland Extension suggests carving out time next week to sit in on its eviction-prevention seminar.

The event, from 8:30 a.m. to noon on Friday 6/24, will include sessions on energy conservation, increasing savings through budgeting, tenant resources and renters' rights when their landlord gets foreclosed on.

It's scheduled to be held at Pleasant View Gardens, 201 N. Aisquith St. in Baltimore. To register, call the extension at 410-856-1850, x128 or email MElonge@umd.edu.
