A suggested script — adapt it to your situation:
Hi, I'm calling about rental assistance or eviction prevention.
My name is [your name], and I'm interested in the Eviction Prevention Legal Assistance program.
I wanted to ask whether there are any requirements I should know about, such as Income-based eligibility, Washtenaw County?
I also wanted to confirm your current hours. I see Mon-Fri 9am-12pm, 1pm-5pm. Is that still accurate?
And just to confirm — is this service free of charge?
What is the best way to get started? I see call Mon-Fri 9am-12pm or 1pm-5pm for intake screening.
Thank you so much for your help.
Always introduce yourself and ask to speak with someone who can help with your specific need.
