The State of Connecticut with financial support from the
Connecticut Housing Finance Authority has launched a
rental assistance program for Connecticut residents
impacted by COVID-19, administered through the
Department of Housing:
Potential applicants will be directed to a Centralized Call Center
for Threshold Eligibility, after which a detailed application must
be completed, including verification of documentation.
Initial priority for assistance will be targeted at individuals and
families who have been denied unemployment assistance from
the Department of Labor.
If you are unemployed/under-employed and have not yet filed
for unemployment assistance, you should do so as soon as
possible.
Please make every attempt to remain in contact with your
landlord, and to make rental payments.
Beginning 8 am on Wednesday, July 15, call the number
below and speak to a Call Center Representative to
determine if you qualify for TRHAP assistance.
