Emergency Financial Assistance

EFA (formerly AIDS Emergency Fund) provides financial assistance to low-income San Francisco residents living with HIV/AIDS. EFA has two programs: Emergency Assistance (EA) and Eviction Prevention (EP).

The Emergency Assistance (EA) grant provides up to $500 per grant cycle, and can be used to help with housing, medical expenses, and/or utility bills. Other restrictions may apply.

PRC’s Emergency Financial Assistance is seeing clients through appointments only.

Eviction Prevention

The Eviction Prevention (EP) grant can be used either to help pay move-in costs (deposit, 1st month) or to prevent eviction. A referral from a case manager, social worker, or lawyer is required. This grant provides up to $1000 per grant cycle, depending on need, and can be combined with the EA grant if eligible.
