The Polis Center, drawing on its expertise in research and data analysis, has created a user-friendly online tool to help people in Indiana understand evictions and their impact on communities.

In the United States, eviction is a legal process that landlords use to force tenants out of their rental homes. For tenants, eviction is more than just a legal process—it's a devastating experience with profound social and economic consequences.

Evictions are often seen as individual, personal failures. What I learned from teaching this class was that evictions are a societal and systemic failure, not an individual one. Our society does not provide the most basic conditions for people to survive and thrive.
