The Tenant-based Rental Assistance Program Print

Purpose: To provide rental assistance 1) to households that have completed a transitional housing program for the homeless and 2) to households that include one or more individuals with a disability.

The HOME Tenant-based Rental Assistance Program is operated by the Omaha Housing Authority (OHA) using HOME Partnerships Program funds allocated by the City of Omaha.  

This program provides up to 24 months in rental assistance either to households that have completed a transitional housing program for the homeless or to households that include a person(s) with a disability (as defined by the US Department of Housing and Urban Development) and who have been involved in a supportive services program. 

All applicants for this program are to be referred to OHA by an existing transitional housing or support service program that will document its involvement with the household and verify household status (i.e., homeless or disabled).Â
