TenantConnect
TenantConnect is a program of OC Housing Partners which focuses on increasing safe, affordable, high-quality housing with local connections for resident stability.
Our goal is to provide support to residents and access to housing and local resources such as employment, food, and legal help. Research shows that safe, affordable housing is an important social determinant of health. With stable housing, adult residents can hold long-term employment, and children perform better in school.
Together with our partners, we can increase affordable housing and resident success in our neighborhoods.
“We have an excellent relationship with TenantConnect staff, they have worked with our leasing staff continuously to support residents in need of rental assistance. Throughout partnership TenantConnect staff has provided resource and referral with residents to secure around twenty thousand dollars towards eviction prevention, resulting in household stability.”
