Emergency Rent Relief Program to Support Tenants & Landlords Impacted by 2025 Wildfires

The Los Angeles County Department of Consumer and Business Affairs, in partnership with The Center by Lendistry, is launching a new Emergency Rent Relief Program to deploy over $23 million in targeted rental and mortgage assistance for eligible landlords. The program aims to prevent eviction, stabilize households, preserve affordable housing, and protect vulnerable tenants countywide. Program details are available here, and while applications are not yet open, landlords and tenants can complete an online interest form to receive updates and be notified when the application period begins later this year.
