Waukesha County and Washington renal assistance.
Families seeking rent help in Waukesha County or nearby Washington can receive financial aid from programs such as the Emergency Assistance Grant (EA) as well as non-profit agencies. There are also other housing programs available to them, ranging from landlord mediation for stopping an eviction as well as funds for paying a security deposit as well as section 8 vouchers.
The goal of these programs across the Waukesha region is to both prevent homelessness and rehouse families. All of that will be combined with case management. This will help the family regain long term stability. As part of this, there may be grants available as part of EA to pay first months rent or a portion of a security deposit on a new low income apartment.
Also, since many evictions can be prevented or delayed just by mediating a dispute, the legal support available can even help negate the need for rental assistance. So that is another service that may be provided.
