Illinois Court-Based Rental Assistance Program

The Illinois Court-Based Rental Assistance Program (CBRAP) provides emergency rental assistance to tenants and housing providers/landlords across Illinois who have pending cases in eviction court. Eligible applicants may qualify for up to $10,000 that can be applied to past due rent, up to $700 for court costs, and up to two months’ future rent to prevent housing displacement.

The CBRAP call center has English, Spanish, and Polish-speaking staff available. If you require assistance in a language other than those three, please email CBRAP.info@ihda.org.
