Kentucky Housing Corporation (KHC) administers two programs for the Commonwealth designed to keep Kentuckians housed. The Eviction Diversion Program (EDP) helps eligible renters with an active eviction case avoid homelessness by providing back rent or access to alternative housing. The Homeowner Assistance Fund (HOAF) helps eligible homeowners avoid homelessness by providing assistance for up to six months of missed mortgage payments or payments for utilities. So far, KHC has allocated over $34 million from HOAF. EDP began earlier this year.

In this episode of Bringing It Home, we speak with the two people at KHC responsible for administering the programs: EDP Program Manager Christine Amburgey and HOAF Program Manager Miranda Cornish.

We also speak with Libby Ludwig of Apprisen, a nonprofit financial services organization that helps homeowners navigate HOAF and work their way back to financial freedom.
