With $25 billion in rental assistance included in the end-of-year COVID-19 relief package and more proposed in the latest Biden recovery plan, local governments are now responsible for distributing billions of dollars in aid to prevent evictions and threats to economic recovery in the housing market. However, rental assistance programs to date have struggled to effectively distribute funds quickly and reach hard-to-target populations.
Join NLC, the National Association of Counties and the Aspen Institute for this webinar that features city and county examples and housing experts who have identified local government best practices in distributing rental assistance as a response to the economic impact of COVID-19.
