739-14 EMERGENCY SHELTER
This supportive service helps to ensure families are in safe and affordable housing in proximity to employment opportunities. It has three uses:
To help with high costs of initially securing housing such as paying first and last month’s rent.
To assist families who have already paid rent, but who have an immediate need to change their housing situation to ensure self-sufficiency. This includes moving to escape domestic violence or unsafe living conditions, or to accept employment.
To pay unmet housing costs that are caused by unanticipated losses of income. This should only be done when there are no other resources available and a family's living arrangement is in jeopardy.
Note:
This service cannot be used to pay damage and/or pet deposits.
