Rental aid program seeks applicants
Maui County’s temporary rental assistance program is seeking more applicants whose incomes have been significantly impacted by COVID-19 and are looking for a new lease.
The Tenant Based Rental Housing Assistance Program also invites landlords seeking tenants to learn how they may participate as well.
“Many residents have lost jobs and income because of COVID-19 impacts, and this program provides much-needed rental assistance through the end of this year,” Mayor Michael Victorino said in a news release Wednesday.
The program is funded by the HOME Investment Partnerships Program and is being administered by the Family Life Center. Program qualifications include that applicants must be residents of Maui County, looking for a new lease and have:
• A household income at or below 60 percent area median income.
• Experienced a loss of employment or significant decrease in working hours due to COVID-19.
Income limits vary depending on household size. For example, a one-person household can have an income of up to $41,040, and a four-person household can have an income of as much as $58,560.
