Brownsville area rental assistance programs.

Cameron County as well as Brownsville area residents can apply for rent help from one of several agencies. The funding available is limited and it often relies on government grants or money raised from the community. Anyone that is facing an eviction should seek rental assistance as soon as possible. Or they can look into other resources, such as assistance for a security deposit so they can relocate to a new, affordable property.

The non-profits will often have a waiting list in place, and this especially holds true for the section 8 program in Cameron County. When facing a crisis, then the applications for assistance for any back rent can be accelerated. There may also be housing services focused on the disabled or senor citizens in Brownsville Texas, as helping these individuals with paying their rent and keeping them housed often take priority.

Loaves and Fishes of the Rio Grande Valley is a social service agency focused on the area around Harlingen. There may be emergency financial aid for rent, energy costs, and other expenses. This is also combined with case management or placement into shelter. Call 956-423-1014.
