OHFA PROVIDES $5 MILLION FOR RENTAL ASSISTANCE AND EMERGENCY HOMELESSNESS SERVICES

摘要

At a March 18 board meeting, the Ohio Housing Finance Agency (OHFA) approved a proposal to provide up to $5 million in funding to help homeless and low-income residents negatively affected by the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic avoid or escape homelessness and stay in their homes. Each of the state's nine Continuums of Care (CoCs) will receive a portion of the funds to address homelessness prevention, rapid rehousing, and emergency rental assistance. A CoC is a regional planning body that coordinates housing and other services for homeless families and individuals.
