On Monday, Koster held a meeting with the leaders of 14 of the nation’s largest financial institutions to discuss measures to assist Joplin homeowners. Collectively, the banks and lenders cover 95 percent of mortgages in the Joplin area.

He said the state will undertake a public education campaign to help homeowners take advantage of such programs.
