The Department of the Treasury recently released a list of state and local governments that will receive grants through the Emergency Rental Assistance (ERA) program. The Treasury Department had launched the ERA program, making available $25 billion to assist households that are unable to pay rent and utilities due to the COVID-19 pandemic, on Jan. 5. The funds are provided directly to states, U.S. territories, local governments, and Indian tribes. And grantees can use the funds to provide assistance to eligible households through existing or newly created rental assistance programs.
