Housing Units Needed for Emergency Housing Voucher Holders

The San Diego region recently received 819 Emergency Housing Vouchers through the American Rescue Plan Act. These permanent housing vouchers are a much-needed resource that will help address our region’s homelessness issue. Every single unit helps – even one apartment within your portfolio is a new home for an individual or family who can exit homelessness. There may be incentives for participating housing providers, including a leasing bonus, up to two-months’ rent in security deposit, a contingency fund to assist with repairs that exceed the security deposit, and a dedicated Landlord Liaison.
