Alumnus Reilly Morse, a former Katrina Legal Fellow, was interviewed in Sunday’s Clarion-Ledger. Reilly, who is currently an attorney at the Mississippi Center for Justice, discusses what needs to be done as FEMA assistance fades and working families continue to struggle. Among his recommendations are:

Rebuild homes on in-fill lots in existing neighborhoods;

Repair small rentals owned by mom-and-pop landlords;

Ensure that affordable apartment complex reconstruction occurs despite the credit crisis;

Permanently place Mississippi Cottages in communities.
