Maricopa County residents who are experiencing financial hardships due to the COVID-19 pandemic may be eligible for Emergency Rental Assistance.
Over the past year, Maricopa County has put more than $80 million back into the community to prevent evictions and utility disconnections, and we are not done yet!
Qualified residents may receive up to 15 months of payments for rental and utility assistance.
Payments can be made on past due, present or future owed bills.
Prioritization:
- Households living at or below 50% of the household median income
- Households with one or more members that have been unemployed for the past 90 days at time of application and living at or below 80% area median income.
Availability:
Maricopa County Human Services Department will serve eligible county residents living outside the cities of Gilbert, Glendale, Mesa, and Phoenix. Those cities have their own programs.

Storm Damage? Start Here.
The monsoon hit again last night with a crash, and a rumble, and for many people in the Valley, a downpour. Some parts of Maricopa County saw more than an inch of rain, while others had 50+ MPH wind gusts. Whether your neighborhood received damage, or you just want to be prepared for the next storm, visit Maricopa.gov/Monsoon for all the resources and storm preparation and recovery tips you'll need.
Curious about how much rain fell near your house? Flood Control District tracks that here.

NEWS BITES
Back to School Vaccinations
Hard to believe, but it's almost "Back to School" time. In addition to school supplies, you'll want to make sure your child is up-to-date on vaccinations needed for school. Public Health has three free child vaccine clinics.
Find the near vaccine location near you at Maricopa.gov/immunizations.
Fight the Bite!
Did you know that mosquitoes only need small amounts of standing water to increase their populations? Help prevent mosquito bites and the serious diseases they can carry (such as West Nile Virus) by tipping and tossing water around your home and yard.
Check out this Backyard Checklist from Maricopa County Environmental Services. www.FightTheBiteMaricopa.org.
Be Safe Around Water
Taking a dip in the pool or heading out to the lake is often a huge relief during the summer. But please be safe, especially with children around.

PETS AND PLACES
Pet of the Week
 Meet Isadora!
Isadora is an absolute sweetheart who has been so friendly with everyone she meets! There's nothing this pup enjoys more than spending time with you (especially if you'll give her plenty of petting and nice back scratches!). She appears to have already had some previous training, takes treats very gently, and walks nicely on a leash. This wiggly girl may even be good with kids or other dogs at home if you're careful to introduce them gradually so everyone has time to adjust. Isadora is already spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, and ready to go home with you today! All adoptions are free of charge through July 31!
