Emergency Rental Assistance Program (ERAP)

The Emergency Rental Assistance Program (ERAP) provides free technical assistance for New Mexicans in urgent need of finding money to cover the cost of their rent and utilities. ERAP is a Federal Aid Program that has assisted numerous New Mexicans, especially those whose finances were detrimentally affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. ACCESS contributes by promoting the program and talking clients through the entire application process. This program improves the wellbeing/health of New Mexicans by alleviating the intensive stress and consequent mental health deterioration experienced by clients who are struggling to pay their rent or utilities, or facing eviction.
