The County’s 2021 Emergency Rental and Utilities Assistance Program (ERAP) helps eligible households in qualifying areas who have been financially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The program provides payment assistance for renters who need help with rent and utilities. Applications will be accepted until funds are no longer available.

The program offers to help pay past rental arrears from April 2020-March 2021, prospective rent (April-June 2021) and overdue utility payments (April 2020-March 2021). This program also applies to mobile home space rent and is open to both tenants and landlords.
