Nevada’s Eviction Aid Faces Funding Crisis

Nevada’s eviction prevention program, helping nearly 1,700 families stay housed, is on the brink of collapse as its $21 million funding may run out before September 27. Clark County used $2.5 million to assist 577 households and is cautiously expanding to families with infants under one year old. Though local programs have been active since the pandemic, Governor Lombardo vetoed key tenant protections—including eviction record sealing—which leaves evicted residents vulnerable to predatory landlords and homelessness. Advocates urge lawmakers to reconsider, proposing sealing records after 24 months in transitional housing to help people rebuild their housing stability. The crisis underscores the urgent need for both immediate funding and lasting tenant rights reforms. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
