Description

A comprehensive housing mobility program that assists participants in the Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) program with children move to designated opportunity areas of their choice in Erie and Niagara Counties. These areas have lower rates of poverty, violent crime, and unemployment, along with higher school rankings for a better quality of life for families. Mobility Coaches assist with finding housing in a well-resourced area, work with participants to develop family, vocational, and/or educational goals, and link participants with community resources to help them to meet these goals.

MMP provides comprehensive support to tenants participating in the housing mobility program described above through the following secondary services:
- Financial assistance for moving expenses and security deposit for housing in designated opportunity areas
- One-hour workshops on housing search techniques, tenant rights and responsibilities, and basic financial skills
- Individual mobility counseling and support throughout the housing search process
- Assistance with completing the lease application and other required paperwork, as well as negotiations with the landlord
- Post-move support and check-ins provided by the mobility counselor
- Landlord/tenant liaison services and mediation services to resolve landlord-tenant conflicts

Grants of up to $5,000 are available to participating landlords for rental property improvements.
