The Third Round of the Temporary Rental Assistance Grant Will Be Open From April 15, 2024 to April 20, 2024
The Department of Local Affairs (DOLA) is pleased to announce the third round of pre-applications for the Temporary Rental Assistance Grant initiative, which will provide $30 million in temporary rental assistance to Coloradans at risk of eviction or displacement or who meet income limits and other qualifying factors.
Pre-applications will open on the Department of Local Affairs’ website on April 15, 2024, and will be accepted until 5:00 p.m. on April 20, 2024. The pre-application process will start on the fifteenth (15) day of each month, while funds are available. Funds must be spent by June 30th, 2024.
Following this pre-application period, DOLA will conduct a random selection process to invite individu- als to complete a full application. The Department will continue to prioritize applicants experiencing eviction that have a verified court summons; however, having a court summons is not a requirement to apply.
In the random selection process, the timing of submission does not impact an applicant’s chances of receiving rental assistance. Submitting a pre-application earlier in the application window does not increase the likelihood of receiving rental assistance. All eligible applicants who submit a pre-application by 5:00pm on April 20, 2024 will be entered into the random selection process.
For more information on the pre-application process and eligibility requirements, please visit the Temporary Rental Assistance Grant initiative website.
