Renters can apply for up to 18 months of assistance if they live in Dallas and are at risk of losing their housing.
Myriam Igoufe, DHA’s chief research and innovation officer, said many residents — especially low-income households — continue to experience long-lasting effects of the pandemic. The new infusion of funds could mean “light at the end of the tunnel” for many renters, helping them gain economic resiliency and avoiding homelessness, Igoufe said.
Renters who are accepted into the program should expect to get relief within up to a week, Igoufe said.The program doesn’t cap how much rent relief an applicant can receive each month, but it does limit the number of months a person can receive help. Renters must maintain eligibility throughout the program, which requires renters to provide documentation every three months. Applicants don’t have to show their financial hardship is directly linked to the pandemic, only that they lost their job or income after March 2020.
