BOISE, Idaho — Idahoans struggling to pay rent is just one of the many impacts we’ve seen of this pandemic. There is financial help available though, but for at least one program, time is running out.
“We've seen a pretty dramatic impact on Idaho renters across the state as a result of the pandemic,” said VP of Housing Support Programs with Idaho Housing and Finance Association, Brady Ellis.
He says, since the Housing Preservation Program launched in May, they've helped more than 4,700 households, which include about 14,500 individuals.
