We provide HUD-approved tenant counseling services that have been certified and approved by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). These counseling services aim to provide valuable guidance and support to tenants in various aspects of housing, including renting, leasing, and maintaining their homes.

These services may include:

• Tenant Education: Education and information to tenants on their rights and responsibilities, fair housing laws, lease agreements, and the rental application process.

• Budgeting and Financial Guidance: Assisting tenants in creating and managing a budget to ensure they can afford their rent and related expenses, preventing eviction due to financial issues.

• Fair Housing: Tenants receive guidance on fair housing laws to prevent discrimination in housing based on race, color, religion, sex, disability, familial status, or national origin.

• Eviction Prevention: Information on eviction processes and strategies to prevent eviction, such as negotiation with landlords or accessing financial assistance programs.

• Rental Assistance Programs: Tenants are informed about government rental assistance programs, such as Section 8, and may receive assistance in applying for them.
