On February 5th and 6th, Defend Glendale & Public Housing Coalition reported that MPHA hired Center for Multicultural Mediation & Restorative Justice (CMMRJ) to silence vulnerable residents of Elliot Twins in order to accept the RAD Program, and its displacement plans. DG&PHC also reported that this organization was fraudulent. Therefore, MPHA was also committing fraud by hiring CMMRJ.

After this report, former associate of CMMRJ Barbara Raye contacted DG&PHC to set the record straight because CMMRJ claims they are part of Barb Raye’s organization. To learn more, see the below statement from Barbara Raye.

“I am writing to confirm that Abdi Ali and CMMRJ have NOTHING to with the Center.” Barb Raye
