If you are not in a shelter and you are at risk of eviction or homelessness, apply for Cash Assistance.
To apply online, visit www.nyc.gov/accesshra or use the ACCESS HRA mobile app to submit your application.
You may also apply by mail or in person. Visit the Cash Assistance guide to learn how.
Call the HRA Infoline at 718-557-1399 if you have a medical or mental health condition that makes it hard for you to apply for Cash Assistance.
If you are in a shelter, your shelter housing specialist / case manager will explain FHEPS and help you search for an apartment.
Families in shelter who are approved for FHEPS may be eligible to receive a furniture allowance and moving assistance.
