Clark County is phasing out a rental-assistance program instituted during the COVID-19 emergency.
After spending more than $375 million to help about 70,000 households facing eviction during the unprecedented crisis, the county said its Cares Housing Assistance Program will stop accepting new applications past Jan. 22.
“This monumental effort helped to keep residents housed during this difficult period and prevented large-scale homelessness across the county,” Clark County wrote about the program in a news release.
Residents who need additional aid are being asked to apply to other county eviction-prevention programs.
