We currently offer rental assistance for individuals and families who have experienced a recent crisis that has impacted their ability to maintain housing. We also offer HeatShare assistance, which helps with the utility bill for the service that heats a client’s home, when a qualifying crisis has caused financial hardship. All programs are subject to funding availability.
For both programs, clients must meet the following basic requirements:
• The household must have experienced a recent crisis that directly contributed to their need.
• The household must have applied for Emergency Assistance through the county and received a response.
• The household must have applied to their local Community Action Partnership and received a response.
• The household must have verifiable income showing they will be able to maintain their housing or utilities moving forward after assistance is provided.
We also have limited gas card assistance available for clients who can provide documentation showing they have a necessary appointment they need to travel to, such as a medical or employment-related appointment.
If you have any questions about eligibility or referrals, please feel free to reach out. We appreciate the work you do supporting individuals and families in our communities.
