Financial Assistance

Don't Wait, Be Proactive

  • Assistance with a security deposit to secure permanent housing
  • Energy assistance to prevent utility cutoff

​If you are currently behind on rent because of COVID-19:
 
If you applied for Prince George's County's Emergency Rental Assistance (ERA) Program and are denied, please reach out to LARS with proof of your ERA denial and we will assess your eligibility for other funding. If you are approved for ERA but still need additional help, you may reach out to LARS directly for future assistance.
 
If you are behind on rent or utilities for reasons NOT related to COVID-19:

You may reach out to LARS directly to make an appointment at 301-776-0442 Option 2. For more information on LARS’ financial assistance process, please review the Financial Assistance Application & Documents Checklist..
