We recognize that unexpected circumstances can arise and impact your ability to pay rent. There are government assistance programs, private agencies, and other third-party organizations that may be able to help prevent eviction and provide financial support for renters experiencing hardship. Please see the links below for various rental assistance programs in your areas. If you are able to obtain rental assistance from an outside organization, please be sure to notify your landlord and Alcove of the details by submitting a ticket in your [Support Portal](https://www.alcoverooms.com/renter-support?category=rent_payments). **Alcove does not operate any in-house rental assistance programs**. *The links provided are resources through government or private agencies and rental assistance is not guaranteed.* ### North Carolina **Durham County** [Durham County Rental, Deposit, and Affordable Housing Programs](https://www.needhelppayingbills.com/html/durham_rent_assistance.html) [FindHelp.Org-Durham County](https://www.findhelp.org/housing/help-pay-for-housing--durham-nc) [North Carolina Housing Finance Agency](https://www.nchfa.com/) [The Lending Pocket-Rental Loan Assistance](https://www.thelendingpocket.com/?keyword=i%20need%20help%20paying%20rent%20asap&ad=619454283778&match=b&network=g&srchn=Y&kw=i%20need%20help%20paying%20rent%20asap&cpn=18220439434&AGName=Rent%20Assistance&gclid=Cj0KCQiAw8OeBhCeARIsAGxWtUx2KP6MJm0B8W0kCR33-XWjWG6yJLgIdRNoNmKRpZkSbLiSxlis2NAaAvOkEALw_wcB) [Durham Housing Authority](https://www.durhamhousingauthority.org/housing-programs) [Helping Hands Act](https://helpinghandsact.com/) **Mecklenburg County** [Crisis Assistance Ministry](https://crisisassistance.org/programs/basic-needs/emergency-financial-assistance/) [Charlotte Area Fund](https://www.charlotteareafund.org/) [Charlotte Housing Authority-InLivian](https://www.inlivian.com/) [Helping Hands Act](https://helpinghandsact.com/) **Wake County** [Rental Assistance in Wake County and Raleigh](https://www.needhelppayingbills.com/html/rental_assistance_raleigh.html) [FindHelp.Org-Wake County](https://www.findhelp.org/housing/help-pay-for-housing--raleigh-nc?postal=27608) [North Carolina Housing Finance Agency](https://www.nchfa.com/) [The Lending Pocket-Rental Loan Assistance](https://www.thelendingpocket.com/?keyword=i%20need%20help%20paying%20rent%20asap&ad=619454283778&match=b&network=g&srchn=Y&kw=i%20need%20help%20paying%20rent%20asap&cpn=18220439434&AGName=Rent%20Assistance&gclid=Cj0KCQiAw8OeBhCeARIsAGxWtUx2KP6MJm0B8W0kCR33-XWjWG6yJLgIdRNoNmKRpZkSbLiSxlis2NAaAvOkEALw_wcB) [Raleigh Housing Authorities](https://www.rhaonline.com/) [Dorcas Ministries-Cary and Morrisville](https://dorcascary.org/services/financial-assistance/) [Raleigh/Wake Partnership to End Homelessness](https://partnershipwake.org/) [HelpingHands Act](https://helpinghandsact.com/) **Guilford County** [Greensboro Housing Authority](https://www.gha-nc.org/) [Greensboro Urban Ministry](https://www.greensborourbanministry.org/) ### Georgia **Fulton County** [Rental Assistance in Atlanta and Fulton County](https://www.needhelppayingbills.com/html/atlanta_rent_assistance.html) [Atlanta Housing](https://www.atlantahousing.org/housing-programs/) **DeKalb County** [Rental Assistance in Dekalb County](https://www.needhelppayingbills.com/html/dekalb_county_rent_assistance.html) ### Texas **Dallas County** [CARES Act Funding](https://www.dallascounty.org/cares-act/housing-assistance-en.php) **Tarrant County** [CAP Services](https://www.fortworthtexas.gov/departments/neighborhoods/cap/apply) **Bexar County** [SAMMinistries](https://www.samm.org/get-help/)   -
