Tucson and Pima County
Eviction Prevention/Rental Assistance and Utility Relief Program
(Case processing and funding has begun as of mid-March 2021)
Welcome to the City of Tucson and Pima County Eviction Prevention Program. In December of 2020, U.S. Congress passed a stimulus bill that allocates additional rental assistance funding for those who’ve been affected by the coronavirus pandemic. In an effort to provide the most efficient and effective process, the City of Tucson and Pima County are working with the Community Investment Corporation (CIC) to administer $27.1 million. CIC is working directly with local social service agencies to qualify tenants and landlords for this program.
This program's unique approach:
This program offers both Landlords/Property Managers AND Tenants the opportunity to begin the application process and requires both parties provide information, documentation and agree to mutual resolution for housing stability. Open communication is highly encouraged between both parties, to expedite the process and recognize that we are all in this together.
Applying for the waitlist does not guarantee funding. The process begins with an Eligibility Assessment to determine eligibility based on federally mandated eligibility requirements. Funding is granted upon completion of all required documentation from both parties and eligibility approval verified by Service Agency Case Managers who will be assigned to each case.
