Funds available for county residents who need help with rent, mortgage payments and more

- Wendy DiAlesandro

The clock is ticking on funds older county residents may be able to use for rent, utilities, home repair, property taxes and mortgage payments.

Thanks to a state Healthy Aging grant the county received, the nonprofit agency Community Action Council of Portage County has $110,000 for those purposes alone. The funds are available through June 30.
