BEDFORD- The Lawrence County Housing Task Force is hosting its first Landlord Appreciation Luncheon
on Tuesday, June 11 to celebrate landlords and property managers working to strengthen
housing security in South Central Indiana.
At the event, agencies also will share community resources and ask for feedback on how best

luncheon runs from 11:30-1 p.m. at the Bedford Men’s Warming Shelter, 1414 H Street. There is
no cost to attend, but registration is requested on Eventbrite.
