How will I know if I was awarded a grant?

The application process for this program contains multiple stages of validation. You must first meet the program’s minimum eligibility requirements to be considered for a grant.

The LA County Household Relief Fund Grant may attempt to contact an Applicant multiple times via email and/or phone if additional information and/or documentation(s) is needed to validate their application. An Applicant may be declined if such requests are not completed.

Once you are determined to be eligible for this Program, your application will go through a final validation stage during which the accuracy and truthfulness of the information and documentation you provided is validated.

Important Note: Funding for the LA County Household Relief Grant Program is limited. It is possible that the number of applicants that meet the eligibility requirements will exceed the available funds. Submitting an application, meeting the eligibility requirements, and/or being approved does not guarantee that you will receive funding.

Once your application is fully validated, you will receive an email from to notify you if you have been approved or declined for grant funding.

How do I check the status of my application?

My documents and bank information have been fully validated, and I have been approved for funding. When will I receive funding?
