Resident Resources
NATIONAL AND CALIFORNIA
At WinnResidential our goal is to deliver service that exceeds expectations by listening, responding, caring and pursuing positive experiences for our residents throughout their residency and beyond.
We know this is an unprecedented time of uncertainty and anxiety for our residents. We also know that many of our residents are suffering from job losses, furloughs and reduced hours.
WinnResidential has compiled a list of resources and endeavored to present them in a concise, organized manner. The following pages of this document identify national and local resources that provide assistance.
Residents are responsible for verifying the validity of each resource independently.
In addition to the resources on the following pages, WinnResidential’s Connected Communities team has partnered with Aunt Bertha to create CONNECT, an online platform for residents to search for free and reduced-cost services like food, healthcare, job opportunities, benefits enrollment, rent assistance and more, all in one place. This database will be updated daily and is available for every zip code in the United States. The website is connect.winncompanies.com.
Emergency resources related to COVID-19 can be found by searching with the tag “COVID19” or COVID-19 Response Program” in the CONNECT search box.
The federal government will be making one-time cash payments directly to our citizens. These payments should be issued during the month of April either by check or direct deposit. How much will you receive?
· Individuals earning less than $75,000 will receive $1,200.
· Married couples earning less than $150,000 will receive $2,400.
· If you have children, you will receive $500 per child.
