News Alert: Rent Relief Program in Claremont Re-Opens July 1st
The Claremont City Council recently voted to include an additional $680,000 in their Temporary Housing Stabilization and Relocation Program for a total of $1,680,000 in funding. The program will be open to accepting new applications starting on July 1st. These funds can be used by renters for a myriad of purposes, including moving costs related to No-Fault evictions.
The program was originally created on April 25, 2023, when the City Council voted to allocate $1 million in funding the program from American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds. The first cycle of the program ended in April 2024 and so far approximately $350,000 has been distributed to applicants. The program will continue to use a prioritized review process, focusing on applications that serve vulnerable renters who are either income-qualified OR are in need of emergency rental assistance.
Applicants are encouraged to apply now; however, submission of a completed application does not guarantee funding. Interested applicants should review eligibility requirements and access the application directly by clicking on this link.
