PANDEMIC HARDSHIP PROGRAM

What is the Pandemic Hardship Program?

A Pandemic Hardship Program is a type of assistance or relief initiative established to provide support to individuals facing financial difficulties with their mortgage and property as a result of a pandemic, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. This Program is designed to provide temporary relief and support to individuals and communities grappling with the economic fallout of a public health crisis. This program aims to mitigate the immediate impact of the pandemic while helping individuals and businesses recover and rebuild in the long term.
