a federally funded, temporary emergency program to support homeowners
experiencing hardship during the COVID pandemic, has disbursed nearly all
program funds and will close soon. The program has entered Final Funding
stage, the first of three closure phases. Homeowners in need of assistance
are encouraged to apply now, while funding is still available.*

“The economic impact of the pandemic continues to be felt by families and
communities across the state,” said Ryan Vincent, Executive Director of
Kansas Housing Resources Corporation (KHRC), which administers the KHAF
program. “This assistance has provided housing stability and preserved the
dream of homeownership for more than 3000 Kansas families in need.”

KHAF was established with American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds to help
qualifying Kansas homeowners get current on their mortgage payments and
avoid foreclosure. Eligible homeowners at least 30 days past-due on
mortgage and/or property taxes can receive payment assistance for
mortgages, utility bills, property taxes, and other charges associated with
delinquency. Since the program launched in April 2022, KHAF has
provided *$40,531,802
*to *3,601* households.

*The closure process will follow three phases. Here’s what this means for
Kansas homeowners in need of assistance:*

*1. Final Funding Phase:* Homeowners seeking KHAF support should *apply*

as soon as possible to be considered for final funding.

*2.* *Hold Phase:* Once the program receives enough applications to fully
expend all KHAF funds, approval of new applications and recertifications
will be subject to availability of remaining funds. Applications submitted
during Hold Phase will be placed on hold and will not be reviewed or
processed unless sufficient program funds are available.

*3.* *Closure Phase: *When all program funds are exhausted the program will
close and will stop accepting new applications.

*The KHAF program is now in Final Funding Phase. The length and dates of
each phase will be subject to a variety of factors, including application
volume and amount of assistance requested. Each program closure phase will
be announced on the KHAF webpage.
