Indiana rental assistance application now open

(Sam Householder/Elkhart Truth)

Need help paying the rent? You can now apply for rental assistance from the state.

The state of Indiana is accepting applications for its rental assistance program. There’s nearly $450 million dollars in rental assistance money available.

Lt. Governor Suzanne Crouch says the program is designed to cover up to a year’s worth of rent — either this year or what’s due from last year.

Not everyone will qualify for help, and not everyone who qualifies will get aid.

You can apply at IndianaHousingNow.org.
