Rental Assistance
Rental assistance programs help New Yorkers experiencing homelessness move out of shelter and into stable housing by providing monthly rent supplements. Since 2014, DSS-HRA has helped more than 150,000 New Yorkers secure housing through the programs this Administration rebuilt from scratch, including remaining in their homes and avoiding eviction or moving out of shelter into permanent housing.
The Department of Social Services (DSS), which includes both the Department of Homeless Services (DHS) and the Human Resources Administration (HRA), can help you connect to rental assistance programs like CityFHEPS, and many other programs available through the State and Federal Government.
