One of the requirements of a multi million dollar rental assistance program that’s been awarded to American Samoa is that renters and landlords must attend workshops about the program.

ERAP, Emergency Rental Assistance Program funds will assist households that are unable to pay rent and/or utilities due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The workshops begin next week and a schedule has been posted on the American Samoa Department of Commerce Facebook page.

Special Assistant to the Director of Commerce Eileen Iosefo Ale says it’s mandatory that the landlord and renter attend one of the ERAP workshops
