Rent Relief: Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, NOAH’s Rental Homelessness Prevention Services Line has been partnering with The City of Boston Office of Housing Stability to help with the City’s Rental Relief Fund initiative. Kudos to Mayor Marty Walsh and DND Director Sheila Dillon for establishing this program! The Rental Relief Fund assists Boston households who are facing a financial hardship due to the COVID-19 pandemic and are in need of financial assistance to cover rent expenses. So far, NOAH has had 1,800+ applicants and has processed rent payments totaling over $680,000 to help hundreds of families prevent homelessness. A special thanks to the City of Boston OHS Department staffers, the two other partner agencies, and to NOAH’s homelessness prevention staffers for all of their hard work and dedication!
