Supervisor Mark Ridley-Thomas Teams With LACDA on Emergency Funds for Renters and Mom-and-Pop Landlords

Los Angeles County has launched a new Emergency Rental Assistance Program.

Supervisor Mark Ridley-Thomas is partnering with the Los Angeles Community Development Authority (LACDA) on a $1.8-million federally-funded Emergency Rental Assistance Program in unincorporated areas within Los Angeles County’s 2nd District, which include Athens, East, and West Rancho Dominguez, Florence Firestone, Ladera Heights, Lennox, View Park, Windsor Hills, and Willowbrook.

Eligible recipients of emergency rental assistance will receive up to $1,000 per month, for three months, to: 1) Pay rent; 2) Meet mortgage obligations on rental properties, and/or 3) Reduce rental payment delinquency in arrears.

The Rent Relief Program provides rent payments to property owners on behalf of an income-eligible household.

The Rent Relief Program is open to property owners with rental units located within the unincorporated areas of the Second Supervisorial District and to be eligible, the tenant’s property owner must not own more than 10 rental units.
