University of California Santa Barbara - Rapid Rehousing Program

Posted by Tristan Remple on May 1, 2024

The Rapid Rehousing Program works in conjunction with the Financial Crisis Response Team to connect students experiencing housing insecurity to housing resources. If a student is at an immediate risk of being houseless, they may be eligible for the following: Transitional Housing: Temporary housing for up to 25 days for students who lack safe and stable housing. Free meal plans and case management are included during a students' stay. Housing Vouchers: One-time emergency rental assistance grants applicable to on and off campus living arrangements. Grant award amounts are determined on a case by case basis. Case Management: The Financial Crisis Response Team works with students to find long term solutions to students' basic needs and provides a holistic service in order to connect students to respective basic needs resources on campus as well as in the community.
