“We are seeing a high quantity of applications for rental assistance since RRP has
ended. United Way shared in a meeting today that in the city of Newport News, 231
households have been evicted in the last 2 months according to court records. These
numbers do not include families who leave their residents before they are evicted.
When families are evicted, the consequences can be dire and can affect their safety,
mental health, and financial health. Funds are needed to provide rental assistance to
families who can otherwise stay afloat, but hit a temporary setback that they cannot
overcome alone.”
The City of Newport News will submit the Home-ARP Allocation Plan to the U.S.
Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD), which will be an amendment to our
PY2021 Annual Action Plan.
