EDEN's programs are
designed to help persons with disabilities and/or coming from
homelessness realize their full potential. We offer permanent &
temporary rental subsidy programs as well as emergency rental &
utility assistance. Please review our program descriptions below.
Keep in mind that each program has a specific set of eligibility
criteria and some programs are only offered through specific
partnering agencies. Applicants cannot self-refer; they must be
referred from a case manager or social worker at an agency that
partners with EDEN. There is no minimum rent for any of our
programs; therefore, applicants do not need income to qualify.
