Sacramento Emergency Rental Assistance (SERA2) Program shra.org

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Sacramento Housing and Redevelopment Agency (SHRA), in partnership with the City and the County of Sacramento, through federal and state funding, is offering emergency rent and utilities assistance for renters living anywhere in Sacramento County who have experienced a reduction in household income or other financial hardship due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Eligible applicants can receive assistance for past rent and utilities owed from April 1, 2020 to present. The total assistance amount available will depend on household need.

Applications will be placed in a computerized random order—NOT first-come-first-served.

Priority will be given to households that owe rental arrears.
