Community Connection’s Emergency Housing programs provide rent, motel, utility, and security deposit assistance. The goals of this program are to prevent evictions and utility shut-offs, to establish permanent housing, and to provide emergency lodging.
Please note that assistance is usually limited to one time a year per household. Funding is limited and we are not able to serve everyone who applies. In all cases, payment are issued directly to the landlord or shelter.
If your need is immediate, we recommend calling instead of filling out an online inquiry form.
For immediate emergency housing, your self-sufficiency coordinator will provide you with a voucher to one of our participating local hotels or motels.
For rental assistance, your self-sufficiency coordinator will contact you, Monday thru Friday, between 9am and 4pm. Depending on the volume of applications, it could be up to 30 days after applying before we contact you. If your contact information changes, it is your responsibility to call and update us with your new information. If the self-sufficiency coordinator is unable to reach you after several attempts, you may lose your spot in line and be required to reapply.
