About the Program
The Los Angeles County Department of Consumer and Business Affairs (DCBA) has launched the Emergency Rent Relief Program to provide financial assistance to qualifying property owners and tenants impacted by recent emergencies.
This Program will prioritize small landlords with four or fewer rental units to help them mitigate detrimental emergency financial hardships while also reducing the number of tenants being evicted in the County due to unpaid rents.
Grant Awards
- Up to six (6) months of rent debt may be covered.
- With limited exceptions, the maximum award is $15,000 per rental unit.
- Eligible Uses of Funds
- Grant funds may be used to cover:
- Unpaid rent (rental arrearages)
- Unpaid mortgage
- Other unpaid expenses separate from rent, directly related to financial hardship caused by the 2025 Eaton or Palisades fire and windstorm events, or any other emergency financial hardships
