Rental Assistance

The City of Snohomish is committed to supporting residents facing housing instability. Our Rental Assistance Program provides financial support to help tenants who are struggling to pay their rent and are at risk of eviction.

About the Program

This program is designed to act as a crucial safety net for our community members. Funding for this assistance comes from a small portion of the existing state sales tax revenue collected within the city. This is not a new tax for residents. By using these dedicated funds, we can directly help households in need maintain their housing.

Are You Eligible?

To qualify for rental assistance, you must meet the following criteria:

• You must be a current resident of the City of Snohomish. (check if you are in city limits here)

• Your total household income must be less than 60% of the Snohomish County Area Median Income (AMI).

The City of Snohomish has partnered with Take the Next Step, a trusted local nonprofit organization, to manage the application and distribution process for this program.
