Find a listing of El Paso rental assistance programs. A number of agencies, churches, non-profits, and government agencies provide individuals with funds to pay their rent in an emergency. In addition many individuals may be able to qualify for security deposits, moving expenses, and moving cost assistance. While each program will have certain qualifications that need to be met, the bottom line is that thousands of people in El Paso receive housing or rent assistance every year.
Some of the programs have a goal of providing emergency rental assistance to prevent an eviction, and others are targeted at the homeless and trying to get them into a new home or apartment. Unfortunately not everyone will receive help. The deciding factor will be the specific criteria established by the El Paso Texas non-profit agency administering the particular program and the guidelines they have in place. In addition, it is always best to ask for rental help early in the process, ideally even before you receive an eviction notice.
