From: Terra Marroquin, Family Violence Prevention Specialist, San Diego County District Attorney's Office 

Enclosed is an application for the XC Grant funded Victim Housing program, operated by South Bay Community Services (SBCS).  It’s a simple three-page application that staff at your organization can complete with the client and fax or email to SBCS.  No crime report is required.  The survivor must have experienced victimization within the past 12 months to qualify. 

This housing program for survivors includes:

  • Hotel stays (Paid per Night Stay, Maximum 2 Weeks)
  • Security deposits (Maximum $2,750)
  • Rent/mortgage payments (Maximum 2 Months, $5,500)
  • Past rent/mortgage balance due (Maximum 2 Months, $5,500)
  • Transportation services or moving truck stipend for survivors eligible for housing assistance and in need of this additional assistance.
  • Assistance by phone by SBCS staff for safety planning and referrals to victim services and other resources, as selected by the applicant on the “Housing Assistance Application – Victim Support.”

Hello Partners-

As many of you hopefully already know, SBCS has a new contract with the County of San Diego, HHSA, Housing and Community Development Services that provides one-time rent/mortgage assistance, security / rental deposit assistance for relocation, transportation moving cost assistance, and hotel/motel vouchers (these vouchers are just for Central and South Regions of San Diego County) for certain victims of crime.   Attached is the program’s application that contains specific information about the program including eligibility criteria for your reference and use.  We look forward to receiving your referrals and collaborating together.

Analicia McKee is the Program Director overseeing this contract and Yvonne Arvizu is the Associate working directly with the clients.  If you have any questions about the program, please feel free to reach out to Analicia McKee amckee@csbcs.org for more information.

Please note that this program ends June 30, 2019 and assistance for victims is contingent upon funds remaining during the FY.
