Rent resources available in Northern California

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — During these difficult times it is important to know where people can find support, assistance and relief.  And while California legislators passed bills to extend the current eviction moratorium to June 30, 2021 some Californians are struggling to find a place to sleep.

"You say that you can help folks when they've hit a wall. Well, my husband and I sure have. We are seniors and we were living in the motel until taken by hospice to a COVID-free shelter. That will end in three weeks, and then we don't know what to do. I just want to have a home before I die. If there is anything you can do, maybe someone can help us.“ - Carol & Kristian
