Supporting Rental Assistance
What is COVID-19 Rental Assistance?
The rental housing industry wants to keep families in their homes.
This multibillion program helps households pay rent and utilities. So, we support the Emergency Rental Assistance Program.
More than direct financial assistance.
Without direct financial assistance, Congress is jeopardizing the security of the millions of Americans who call our communities home and the stability of the entire housing market.
Why is COVID-19 Rental Assistance smart?

It’s sustainable because rental housing stabilizes the rental housing industry by ensuring residents and rental housing providers can meet their financial obligations, ensuring operations can continue in the short and long term.
