But many people can be helped if they know where to turn for trusted information. In response, KETC/Channel 9 has launched Facing the Mortgage Crisis, a community initiative with the United Way of Greater St. Louis and numerous nonprofit organizations throughout our region to connect people with trusted information and free services.
