The Security Deposit Loan Program from AMEN provides a much-needed service to families seeking to move into a Section-8 rental apartment or home. This loan is for the amount of the security deposit, freeing the renter to pay the first month’s rent. This assistance, obtained by referral of a social worker, is extremely important to families in Arlington who have limited means, and might not otherwise be able to afford a home of their own without this important first step.
The loan is interest free and has a very flexible repayment schedule.
