Bonner County residents making under $40,400 a year could qualify for three months of free rent through a new emergency rental assistance program.

In March, $32 million of supplemental funding for emergency rental assistance was approved by the Idaho Legislature, which falls under the Idaho Housing and Finance Association’s Housing Preservation Program — a program that provides assistance to Idahoans who live outside of Ada County, who need help with their rent or utilities as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Since these funds were granted to Idaho residents, The Community Resource EnVision Center in Sandpoint has been helping residents in Bonner and Boundary counties apply for and receive those emergency rental funds.
