The RVA Eviction Lab, housed at VCU within in the Wilder School of Government and Public Affairs, focuses on meeting eviction data and research needs and supporting the work of local government, community-based organizations, elected officials, and other advocates. The RVA Eviction Lab takes the necessary deeper dives into the qualitative and quantitative aspects of evictions. Because this problem and the associated research questions will continue to shift both regionally and locally, we make data public, reliable, and responsive to the needs of the community, region, and the state.
Our work is supported through grants from the Richmond Memorial Health Foundation, The Wilder School for Government and Public Affairs and the VCU Presidential Research Quest Fund, The Ford Foundation, the Lincoln Land Institute and other competitive sources.
