Applications Open for Rental Assistance
The online application period is now open for Marin renters who have experienced economic hardship because of the COVID-19 pandemic. There is $16 million to distribute as part of the federal Consolidated Appropriations Act, intended to prevent evictions and homelessness. Money will be channeled directly to landlords to cover past tenant rent and utilities.
As many as 1.5 million California renters are behind on rent for reasons tied to the pandemic. Communities of color have been disproportionately impacted and are often at the highest risk of housing displacement. In Marin, over 3,000 people have contacted the County for help with unpaid rent related to the pandemic.
Read the County’s full news release for more information. Anyone needing help with the online application may call (415) 473-2223 or email staff to learn more about the Emergency Rental Assistance Program.
