Are you at Risk of Eviction or Entering Shelter?
To apply for Rental Assistance please call our office to schedule an appointment. We are administering the Emergency Rental Assistance Program (ERAP).
KCS will help you develop a personalized plan to overcome an immediate housing crisis and achieve housing stability. We will connect you to rental assistance programs if we are not able to assist and you will be able to utilize some of our programs which may help you as well.
We will make certain an attorney attends court with you to advocate on your behalf.
