Housing

If you live in a county covered by the state rent relief program (housing.ca.gov) the agency will review your application to see if you qualify for the program. If you qualify, the agency can cover up to 18 months of rental debt and utilities assistance from April 2020 to March 2022. Any debts from April 1, 2022 or later will not be covered. 

If you live in Sacramento County (www.shra.org/sera) and qualify for the program, you can receive rental debt and utilities assistance from April 2020 to March 2022 and possibly for months beyond March 2022. Like the state program, you are only allowed to receive up to 18 months of assistance.
