About thirty people joined a march along Washington Street in Codman Square last Thursday to push for state lawmakers to adopt a bill intended to halt no-fault evictions in the wake of the Covid pandemic.
The event organized by City Life/Vida Urbana and held despite a heavy rain highlighted the group’s success in assisting two Dorchester people Jean Gaspard and Stephania Pierre-Noel who were facing imminent evictions earlier this year to stay in their homes.
