Description

As of April 1, 2022, the CA COVID-19 Rent Relief program no longer accepts new applications. Some cities or counties may have additional resources, including local rent relief programs, to help Californians cover the cost of their rent or utility payments. Still, many programs may have already ended, and others may have specific requirements for participation. This webinar will give an overview of the current state of the California Rent Relief program and wrap-around services available.

Program summary:
• Overview of federal eviction relief fund distribution
• The state of the Emergency Rental Assistance Program
• Legislation defining the Emergency Rental Assistance Program
• The ERAP Appeals Process and frequently asked questions
• Resources to find additional wrap-around services for clients

Please direct individual or specific case questions to ERAP@HCD.CA.gov.
