What's new?

I Belong in Austin – Rental Assistance Application Portal Closed March 7 at 5 p.m.

The I Belong in Austin  program provides tenant rental assistance to residents vulnerable to eviction.

Effective April 1, 2026, the portal will not reopen and the City of Austin and El Buen Samaritano will no longer be accepting applications via the rental assistance portal. The decision comes following a reduction in overall funding for the City. Remaining assistance dollars will be redirected to focus on legal advocacy and negotiated eviction settlements.

For more information, please visit www.austintexas.gov/rent.
