Housing Assistance

Due to the tidal wave of need in our community, along with diminished funding, FISH has had to make the difficult decision to limit the amount of direct emergency financial assistance we can distribute.

For the immediate future we are shifting from emergency one-time rent assistance to more assistance through our Keeping Families Housed and Keeping Seniors Housed programs.

If you have questions for our team regarding support services, please call 303-465-1600 or email help@broomfieldfish.org.

Changes to FISH’s “Keeping Families Housed” Housing Assistance Program

Keeping Families Housed provides rent support for Broomfield families with children under 18 while participants work toward long-term stability goals.

Starting in the third week of June, we are making a few updates to how families apply for our Keeping Families Housed emergency rent assistance program. We want to ensure this process is clear, fair, and easily accessible for everyone.

Here is what you need to know about the new process:

There is a new interest form: The interest form is only available 3 days per month, starting at 9:00 a.m. on the third Monday of the month and closes at 5:00 p.m. that Wednesday. You may submit an interest form online (below) or in person at FISH. Please submit only one interest form per family.
The selection process is randomized: Within 24 hours of the interest form closing, families will be randomly selected to receive the full application. The number of families selected will be based on program availability.
Next steps: The randomly selected families will receive a full application and have one week to complete and return it.

This is an INTEREST form, and not a full application. During the months we have program availability, the form will be open during the following window:

Opens: 9:00am on the third Monday of the month.
Closes: 5:00pm on the third Wednesday of the month.

If the form is closed when you click the link, it means the current window has ended or the program is temporarily full. We encourage you to check back next month.
