Rental assistance prevents homelessness by assisting families who cannot afford housing in Connecticut's high rent market.

• Fewer than 3,000 Connecticut households are served by the rental assistance program (RAP). About another 2,000 are on the waiting list.
• The cost of emergency shelter in Connecticut is more than $2,000 per month for a family of three. This is twice the fair market rent for a two-bedroo apartment in most of our state.
