Financial Assistance
Disaster Relief Assistance for Immigrants (DRAI Application now open)
In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, California is providing one-time state-funded disaster relief assistance to undocumented adults who are ineligible for other forms of assistance, including assistance under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act and pandemic unemployment benefits, because of their immigration status.
Applicants will be considered on a first come, first served basis. The $75 million in direct assistance will be distributed to individuals with approved applications beginning on May 18, 2020, until the funding is spend or until June 30, 2020, at the latest. Given the economic hardship undocumented adults are experiencing due to COVID-19, this disaster relief assistance may run out within a very short period of time.
Please be patient and continue to call to apply for the Disaster Relief Assistance for Immigrants (DRAI) program.
Assistance Available: 9:00am- 5:00pm, Monday-Friday
