What type of assistance is included in the IHP maximum?

The Individual Housing Program (IHP) provides critical support to individuals and families affected by disasters, focusing specifically on housing needs. Within the IHP, the maximum assistance available includes both Rental Assistance and the Limited Eligibility Rent (LER). Rental Assistance is designed to help eligible individuals secure rental housing when their homes are uninhabitable due to disaster damage. LER provides necessary help for ongoing rental costs, ensuring that recipients can maintain stable housing during their recovery process.

This focus on providing direct support for housing needs is essential, as it directly addresses the immediate challenges people face after a disaster. Rental Assistance and LER are specifically defined components of the IHP maximum assistance, highlighting the program's commitment to helping disaster survivors find appropriate housing solutions. Other options like Direct Loan Programs for Housing, Cash Assistance for Utilities, and Legal Aid Services, while important aspects of disaster recovery, do not fall under the same categories as the IHP assistance maximum.
