rental assistance programs
Rental assistance programs are designed to help individuals and families who struggle to pay their rent. These programs can provide financial support to cover a portion of rent costs, usually targeting low-income households, the elderly, or those facing temporary hardships. Assistance may come in the form of direct payments to landlords or vouchers that recipients can use to pay rent. The goal is to prevent homelessness and ensure housing stability by making it easier for people to afford their living expenses, especially in times of economic difficulty.
