MECOSTA COUNTY — Mid Michigan Community Action Agency has received $5,039,855 through the Michigan State Housing Development Authority for COVID Emergency Rental Assistance in Mecosta, Arenac, Bay, Clare, Gladwin, and Osceola Counties.

Renters who are making 80% or less than the area median income are eligible. Applicants must show documentation of pandemic-related financial hardships, which can include unemployment, reduction of income, and increased expenses, to qualify.
“CERA will provide millions of dollars in assistance to low-income renters impacted by COVID-19. At a time when those in our communities are facing unprecedented financial hardships, we are so proud to be offering this program,” said Jill Sutton, Executive Director of Mid Michigan Community Action.
