When a mobile home park in Grants Pass, Oregon, was put up for sale, more than a hundred households were put at risk of eviction, because a new owner could convert the property to another use. But with legal expertise from Lewis & Clark’s Small Business Legal Clinic, the residents form the Family Redwood Park Cooperative and secured financing to buy the property themselves. Family Redwood Park is the first resident-owned community in Josephine County, providing a model for other rural communities.
