The Community and Human Services Division (CHS) is administering a Tenant Based Rental Assistance (TBRA)
program using HOME and HOME-ARP funds to assist low-income households with rental payments, rental deposits
and eligible utility deposits.
Every five (5) years, the County is required to prepare the Consolidated Plan outlining the goals and activities over the
next five (5) years for the HUD entitlement funds. The 2021-2025 Consolidated Plan was approved by the Collier
County Board of County Commissioners (Board) on June 22, 2021, Agenda Item #16.D.7. Each year the County
prepares a One Year Action Plan to include eligible HOME grant activities; as such, the Board approved the PY22-23

to specific program requirements when participating in rental assistance programs. The maximum amount of assistance
is determined by the eligibility of the tenant as defined by the TBRA program parameters. The attached standard
