The Mountain House Community Services District continues to closely monitor the rapidly evolving COVID-19 situation and work with our local, county, and state partners to remain current on new information as it becomes available.

In order to prevent the transmission of COVID-19 and slow the spread of the virus, PHS continues to recommend that residents stay home as much as possible, avoid unnecessary interactions with people who do not live in your household, practice social distancing (6 feet apart), frequently wash hands, and disinfect items and surfaces. For COVID-19 testing sites and information, visit www.sjready.org.

A new $29.3 million Emergency Rental Assistance Program (ERAP) will be available to San Joaquin County residents beginning March 15, 2021. The ERAP will help qualified tenants address unpaid rent, utilities, and prevent eviction, and assist landlords with their financial obligations.

The City of Stockton has also established a Rental Assistance Program; therefore, those living within the city limits of Stockton may apply at www.stocktonca.gov/renthelp. Those living in any other cities within San Joaquin County or unincorporated County areas may apply at www.sjgov.org/covid19/grants.
