"At the height of the pandemic...IndyRent spent nearly $34M in federal money on emergency rental assistance in just 6 months...as federal funding fades, advocates are looking to Congress to adequately meet the ongoing need for the city & state." @IBJnews bit.ly/3SEvPgm

What’s next for IndyRent as federal funding fades away? - Indianapolis Business Journal

At its peak, the rent-assistance program doled out $7 million in a month. That rate is impossible post-pandemic, so the city must decide how much eviction-prevention assistance is possible.
