SALISBURY, Md. – Habitat for Humanity of Wicomico County was recently awarded a COVID-19 Relief Grant from the Maryland Department of Housing and Community Development.

The funds for this emergency rental assistance program are limited to residents of Wicomico County. Residents of the City of Salisbury are not eligible for this first round of rental assistance, as Salisbury previously received its own round of assistance.

Eligible applicants will need to have been directly affected by COVID-19 through a reduction in work hours or loss of employment. Applications are currently being accepted. All application checklist documents will be required for an application process to begin.
