I am emailing you to provide information about the City of LAs’ Emergency Rental Assistance Program (ERAP), which opened today Tuesday, March 30. Attached are flyers with information about the program and how to apply online or over the phone. HCID has already begun receiving a flood of phone calls and online applications (which is great!) but please continue to remind people that they don't need to apply today. They can go online and call tomorrow and in the coming days. Please share the information with your networks.
Application Information
