On Mill Bay Road stands a building that, years ago, housed Kodiakâs Pizza Hut franchise. The old walk-in freezer â where produce, cheese and other food ingredients were once stored â is now empty except for several boxes of documents on a metal shelving unit. Â
The building that once served Kodiakans piping-hot pizza is now home to a small team of Kodiak Island Housing Authority staff tasked with distributing $5.8 million in emergency rental assistance funding.Â
The housing authority is the tribal-designated housing entity in Kodiak. Its programs offer a variety of affordable rental units around the island. While many of their services are aimed at Alaska Natives or American Indian residents, their most recent emergency rental assistance program is geared toward the general population of Kodiak.Â
More housing relief funds are available for struggling people in Kodiak, the Kodiak Island Housing Authority (KIHA) announced on Tuesday.Â
A total of $5.8 million is available to renters in Kodiak who have demonstrated housing insecurity, have been financially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and make less than 80% of area income. In Kodiak Island Borough, that works out to $78,720 a year, or $6,560 a month.Â
âBased on this criteria and guidance from our Board of Directors, KIHA is committed to serving all eligible households that apply,â KIHA Director Mindy Pruitt wrote in a press release.Â
Those who have received assistance from other sources are not eligible to apply. The money can be used for rental and utility payments over the last 12 months. There currently is no deadline to apply for the KIHA money.Â
Sandra Collins-Jackson, a licensed professional counselor in Kodiak, spent years standing up for Kodiakâs most vulnerable residents. Now, the coronavirus pandemic has given her an opportunity to help her community in a different way.Â
After the virus reached Kodiak last year, she began to research complicated, ever-changing COVID-19 information and post her findings on social media. She pored over medical journals and listened to Gov. Mike Dunleavyâs daily briefings, and shared her findings on Facebook.Â
Collins-Jackson knew that many people who worked full time and were raising families had limited hours in a day to parse COVID-19 information, which changed day by day.Â
