Eviction Prevention resources Assistance
I live in the 98446 Zip code and have applied for help from the county but due to their “fair lottery” system I was denied and cannot reapply for six months. I have a job lined up with the US Government, I am waiting on security clearances to go through and am waiting on unemployment to come through. I have a 30 day notice and as I am outside of Tacoma city limits therefore my apartment complex is charging $75 + $5/day in late fees, not the $10 max within the city of Tacoma even though my zip code says I’m in Tacoma (weird boundary thing) so I’m actually in unincorporated Pierce County.
I’m looking for help as I am a cancer patient and am trying everything I can to get my rent figured out, it’s just unfortunate timing with the job situation and the unemployment situation.
What resources are there for people like me? Seems 211 goes through the county but I’ve already exhausted that option.
