| Shelter + Care (S+C) |
| This is a rental subsidy for individuals/families that are homeless and low-income, and the head of household must have a qualifying disability. The applicant must also be linked with an agency that has a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with S+C because the agency has to provide ongoing support services as match to the federal funds that support the program. Only an agency with MOU can refer clients to S+C. The program utilizes private sector landlords who will accept the subsidy. Tenant's portion of rent/utilities is based on percentage of income. This program can accept a limited number of applications from specific, approved agencies that have the MOU. EDEN cannot accept applications from any other sources. Clients should not contact EDEN regarding this program and should instead consult their case workers to see if they can be referred. Case workers who aren't sure whether their agencies have a S+C MOU should check with their housing liaison instead of contacting EDEN. (top of page) |
