After receiving an additional $22 million in funding, Mecklenburg County has reopened RAMP, its housing assistant program. It closed in January after available funds were nearly exhausted. The program helps to provide rent, mortgage and utility relief to residents in need. To be eligible, applicants must have pandemic-related income loss, illness, or other financial hardship and a household income up to 80% of the area median income. Applicants must also show risk of homeless or housing instability. To view the application, click here.
