If the COVID-19 pandemic has made it hard for you to pay for rent or utilities, you might be eligible for help from the State of Alaska.

Alaska Housing Rent Relief provides up to 12 months of rent and/or utility relief ​​​​​​to eligible Alaskans unable to pay rent and utilities due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Even if you've received rent relief from AHFC in the past, you can apply to this new program.

Alaska Housing Rent Relief closes to new applications at 11:59 p.m. on Friday, March 5.

Check your eligibility and apply here.

UAF works closely with organizations from throughout Alaska to discuss issues, events and strategies, including response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
