Housing: Advocacy & Assistance

​Is this program for me?
  • Are you moving into a new place and need help with the deposit?
  • Are you seeking emergency rental assistance due to a 3 day pay or quit notice?
  • Are you behind on your rent due to a temporary financial crisis?
  • Are you homeless and need assistance with case management and a housing plan?
  • ​Are you in our Service Area?

​If you answered yes to any of these questions, you may qualify for the Family Service Housing Assistance and Advocacy Program.
​
Assessment Review Process?
  1. Assessments are accepted on an ongoing basis. 
    **If applying for move-in assistance, please download or pick-up an Intent to Rent letter and have the property manager fill it out prior to applying. 
  2. Assessments are reviewed by members of our staff each Friday. You should expect a phone call within five business days after submitting your application.
  3. The phone call will consist of a review of your application with one of our staff members to determine if you qualify for a screening appointment.
  4. If you do meet the initial qualifications, a case manager will follow up to schedule an in-person screening appointment at the agency.
    **Please review What to Bring for a list of documents you need to bring to your appointment. The process cannot be completed without all required documents.
