As the public health crisis continues, minority and low-income communities are at risk of losing their housing.

Congress made $46 billion available through the Emergency Rental Assistance Program to help individuals with difficulties paying rent and utilities due to the pandemic - but states and local governments have struggled to get the money out. We'll hear from experts on how this affects underserved communities.
