The State of Michigan’s COVID Emergency Rental Assistance Program (“the Program”) is designed to keep
Michigan residents who fell behind on their rent and utilities during the COVID-19 pandemic in their
homes. The program utilizes a collaborative community process to expedite rental and utility assistance to
COVID-19 affected tenants and their landlords.

Service Agencies - Community Housing Network, Lighthouse MI, and OLHSA will work with tenants and landlords to provide rental, utility and internet assistance for eligible renter households. Legal services for renters will be provided by local legal aid organizations funded by grants made through the Michigan State Bar Foundation.

You can also check out the MSHDA CERA website for information.
