Funded by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the Emergency Services Project provides services and emergency financial assistance to individuals and families. This program is in place to prevent homelessness. Homelessness prevention programs are intended to prevent persons who are housed from becoming homeless by helping them regain stability in their current housing or permanent housing.
Through our Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) we offer rental deposits and arrearages (Eviction Notices, outstanding payments etc.) Eligible participants must be at imminent risk of homelessness, homeless under other federal statues; fleeing/attempting to flee domestic violence or meet the criteria for being at risk of homelessness and have an income at or below 30% of median income. Eligible participants must lack the resources or support networks to help them retain or obtain appropriate, stable housing.
