<br />Families at risk of homelessness due to a financial crisis because of COVID-19 are eligible for a one-time payment of 100% of
<br />rental arrears/past due rent owed since April 1, 2020, payable to their landlord on their behalf or directly to the family if the
<br />landlord refuses to participate.
<br />-The Orange County United Way (United Way) will make $11,922,604.82 in direct financial assistance payments for
<br />approximately 2,385 families. The total assistance available per household is equal to 100% of their rental arrears/past due
<br />rent owed since April 1, 2020, up to a maximum of 15 months. The number of 298 families to be assisted assumes that the
<br />average rental arrears per family equals $5,000 per household. The total number of families assisted will vary according to
<br />the total amount of past due rent approved per household.
<br />-If a landlord refuses to accept payment and participate in the program, the United Way will document their outreach to the
<br />landlord by sending a request in writing, by mail, to the landlord with a deadline to respond in 7 calendar days or document
<br />at least three attempts to contact the landlord by phone, text, or e-mail over a 5 calendar day period to request the
<br />landlord's participation. If the landlord still refuses to participate, the United Way will make the direct financial assistance
<br />payment directly to the tenant.
<br />-The family's eligibility for direct financial assistance will be established and determined by one of eight partner organizations
<br />contracted by the City.
