The Rent Relief program assisted low-income households with past due payments accumulated during the pandemic, helping prevent families from becoming homeless during one of the most challenging economic periods in recent history.
FHF helped Vietnamese and other ethnic communities navigate the State and Santa Clara County Rent Relief system and submit applications, ensuring that language barriers did not prevent families from accessing the help they needed.
Many low-income families, particularly those in immigrant communities, faced significant barriers when trying to access government rent relief programs. Language barriers, unfamiliarity with the application process, and lack of documentation made it difficult for families to get the help they needed.
FHF stepped in to bridge this gap, providing multilingual assistance to help Vietnamese and other ethnic communities navigate the State and Santa Clara County Rent Relief system. Our team helped families understand their eligibility, gather required documentation, and submit their applications.
The primary goal of the Rent Relief program was to prevent low-income families from becoming homeless. By helping families access rent relief funds to cover past due payments, FHF helped ensure that families could remain in their homes during the pandemic.
This program was part of FHF’s broader commitment to housing stability in the Santa Clara County community, working alongside other housing assistance programs to create a safety net for vulnerable families.
While this program has concluded, your donation helps FHF continue serving our community through other vital programs.
