Rental Assistance

The KRCC Rental Assistance Program works with individuals and families with housing needs in Breathitt, Knott, Lee, Leslie, Letcher, Owsley, Perry, or Wolfe County. These needs can range from keeping power on in an elderly person’s home to placing a homeless family in an affordable rental unit. KRCC aims to prevent and end chronic homelessness.

Our services are available to qualifying individuals and families who are homeless, fleeing domestic violence, mentally ill, or at imminent risk of homelessness. KRCC gives preference to families with children, those who are fleeing domestic violence, veterans, those who are suffering from serious mental illness, the chronically homeless, and those with disabilities. These identified groups are some of the most vulnerable but no eligible applicant will be denied service. Anyone seeking assistance can fill out an application at any of the KRCC Outpatient offices.
