September 7, 2021

Housing Opportunities is pleased to announce an award from the U.S. Department of Housing (HUD) of 42 Vouchers to assist individuals and families that are homeless; at risk of homelessness; fleeing or attempting to flee a domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, stalking or human trafficking situation; or recently homeless and for whom providing rental assistance will prevent the family’s homelessness or having substantial risk of housing instability.

The emergency vouchers are available for people who are: 

  • Homeless or at high risk of becoming homeless
  • Fleeing, or attempting to flee, domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, stalking, or human trafficking
  • Recently homeless and at high risk of housing instability
