Linn and Deschutes County rental assistance.

There are organizations that offer rent assistance in the region, but many of the programs have restrictions. Whether it is a Linn County or Deschutes based agency, they have limited funding and strict application processes. However, those low income families that do qualify may receive everything from help with paying a security deposit or back rent to transitional housing.

When applying for assistance, applicants will need proof of income, identification, and household need. Some of the non-profit will also require the tenant to have an eviction notice before they issue them a grant for their rent, while other agencies will want to assist the family before they get to that point. Also, some groups in Linn County will also provide case management in addition to any short term housing assistance.

Emergency rental assistance is provided by some or all of the following charities and government agencies. A waiting list is often in place. Also, any funds for rent expense will often prioritize seniors and families with children.
