The City Renews Rental Assistance Program
The City recently renewed their partnership with African Community Housing & Development (ACHD) and Multi-Service Center (MSC) to continue providing rental assistance to residents in need. This program supports more than 60 households each year, ensuring stability and housing security for our community members.
We are grateful to ACHD and MSC for administering this much-needed program. If you, or someone you know, needs rental assistance, please reach out to these agencies.
SeaTac remains committed to supporting residents facing housing challenges and will continue working with trusted partners to provide essential resources.
