In response to the COVID-19 pandemic and the economic impacts on Juneau households due to the loss of employment and the inability to cover rent, the City and Borough of Juneau has created the COVID-19 Short-Term Rental Assistance Program. Following a recommendation by the Economic Stabilization Task Force, the Juneau Assembly approved a resolution April 20 that uses $200,000 from the Juneau Affordable Housing Fund to assist workforce housing renters.

Alaska Housing Development Corporation and Gastineau Human Services will operate the program similar to community rental assistance programs already in place. Funds will be passed through the Juneau Community Foundation.

The short-term rental assistance program targets households where a member has lost employment and is unable to meet rent obligations due to COVID-19. To see if you quality for rental assistance and/or to apply for the program, please contact Program Coordinator Shari Partin with Alaska Housing Development Corporation at 780-4475.
