Introduction
The purpose of the State Rental Assistance
Program (SRAP) is to assist low-income
individuals who are eligible to receive
supportive services and require affordable
housing to live safely and independently in
the community.
Program Goals
 Provide rental subsidies to program participants
who require, and have access to continuing home- and
community-based services
 Establish partnerships with state agencies and
community service providers
 Move individuals out of state-run long-term care
facilities and into home- and community-based care
programs
 Transition program participants to financial selfsufficiency or to other affordable housing resources
Populations Served
 Clients exiting state-supported and privately run
long-term care facilities
 Youth aging out of foster care
 Families for whom the lack of affordable housing
is a barrier to reunification
 Individuals at-risk of requiring services from or
being admitted to a state-supported institution
 DSAMH clients identified as target populations in
the USDOJ Settlement with the State of Delaware
