SLEHCRA Community Survey!  We need to Hear from YOU!

The St. Louis Equal Housing and Community Reinvestment Alliance (SLEHCRA) is a coalition of nonprofit and community organizations in the St. Louis metropolitan area. SLEHCRA works to increase investment in minority communities, regardless of income, and in low¬ and moderate¬-income communities, regardless of race, by ensuring that banks are meeting their obligations under the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) and fair lending laws.

Every year SLEHCRA conducts a community survey to better understand how local banks and credit unions are addressing community needs. SLEHCRA will use your responses to inform their report to the community to promote a strong CRA.
