The County's Shared Housing Program provides funding to a nonprofit agency to match persons in need of housing with homeowners who have space in their homes to share. If you are an eligible renter (see eligibility requirements below), you can benefit from this home referral program by being matched to a homeowner who has a room available to rent, in exchange for rent paid, care giving or other services performed. If you are an eligible homeowner with extra rooms available in your home, you can benefit by finding someone who wishes to share space in your home, in exchange for rent, services performed or a combination of the above.
All homeowners and applicants undergo screening to determine appropriate matches and will participate in follow up visits and support services through the program agency.
Eligibility
You must be a senior citizen, a disabled person, a victim of domestic violence, a homeless person, an illiterate person, a migrant farm worker, and/or a low or moderate income person (for information on income limits click here).
Geography
You must either live in an unincorporated area of East San Diego County, or in the city of Lemon Grove.
Certain program restrictions and conditions apply, so please contact Crisis House for more information.
