- The Keep People Housed Contra Costa Homelessness Prevention Program provides temporary financial assistance and services to eligible Contra Costa residents at high risk of homelessness or housing loss. Assistance can include back rent, move-in costs, rental assistance, and other housing-related expenses.
- Meeting all eligibility criteria does not guarantee financial assistance. Due to limited resources, only applicants at highest risk of homelessness or housing loss will be prioritized for assistance. The program provides temporary assistance, and it may not be able to cover all expenses a household owes.
- Please note that the program will not cover any expenses that have already been covered by another financial support program.
