If you rent your home and are behind on rent payments, the state of Florida may have some funds to help you catch up.
The Department of Children and Families has launched an Emergency Rental Assistance Program called OUR Florida that will benefit Floridians who have suffered due to the pandemic’s economic impact on working-class families.
The program is using over $800 million dollars in federal funds to help with rent payments.
OUR Florida is now accepting applications for families in need of aid, regardless of their city of residence, at www.OURFlorida.com.
The program focuses on low-income renters whose household income is at or below 80% of the Area Median Income, which varies by county.
The program will prioritize renters with income at or below 50% AMI and families who have experienced unemployment within the past 90 days.
To learn more about eligibility, required documentation, and how to apply, visit OURFlorida.com.
