As part of Governor Newsom’s California Comeback Plan, Long Beach will receive an additional $21.2 million for its Emergency Rental Assistance Program, bringing the total available funds to more than $56 million. Because of this additional support, the city will be extending the deadline for its rental assistance application to June 11 so that more people can get access to these funds. You can access the application here.

The household has a household income at or below 80% of the area’s median income.
One or more individuals within the household has experienced a financial hardship due, directly or indirectly, to the COVID-19 pandemic; and
