SB 18 will help prevent individuals and families from falling into homelessness by providing additional funding to the California Department of Housing and Community Development for rental assistance and legal aid, and requiring HCD to post informational material about landlords’ obligations to tenants on their website. Rental and legal assistance are a critical part of an overall effective and humane approach to the housing crisis that reflects the critical importance of tenant protection, housing preservation, and housing production.
