Massachusetts now has more funding available to help you stay in your home. You may be eligible to receive help with rent, mortgage, and utilities.
Massachusetts renters with a household income of 80% or less of the Area Median Income (AMI) that are having trouble covering rent and/or utility payments may qualify for assistance through the Emergency Rental Assistance Program (ERAP). The program can pay for up to 18 months of arrears or up to 18 months of prospective rental assistance, or a combination, for costs accrued after March 13, 2020. ERAP can also cover up to $2,500 of overdue utility bills for renters that became due after the start of the pandemic.
