On Monday, November 2, MFA will begin accepting applications for the new COVID-19 Housing Cost Assistance Program. The program will provide qualifying New Mexicans with as much as $1,500 per month for up to three months to pay back rent or mortgage payments and other housing costs. MFA is asking that you help get the word out about this crucial assistance. Please send the printable informational flyer, which is linked here in English and Spanish, to everyone on your mailing list. The flyers are also on MFA's website: housingnm.org. Applications will be accepted from 8 a.m. Monday, November 2 through 5 p.m. Friday, November 13 only. The link to the electronic application will be live on MFA's website on November 2. Paper applications may be requested by calling 505-308-4206 or 866-488-0498. Applications will be ranked based on household income level or tribal land residency and the date and time the application was received.

A list of acceptable documents can be found on our website. The COVID-19 Housing Cost Assistance Program is available to New Mexico households earning 80 percent or less of the median income in their area, adjusted for family size. In order to qualify, applicants must prove that they have suffered a financial hardship that is directly related to the COVID-19 health crisis and documentation of delinquency.

Free Mental Wellness Education Program Available to New Mexico Schools and School Based Health Centers
|
In January of 2020, Blue Cross and Blue Shield of New Mexico provided a grant to EVERFI to launch a statewide mental wellness education program that is available at no cost for middle and high schools across New Mexico.
Mental Wellness Basics, a digital course developed by leading education technology provider, EVERFI, provides a population level approach to what is often viewed as an individual issue. Through a public health lens, Mental Wellness Basics provides students with opportunities to explore their own mental health and identify challenges that they may face. The course helps students develop concrete strategies for managing those challenges, while increasing their awareness of resources and empowering them with the knowledge, skills, and language necessary to identify and support a peer who may be struggling.
The Mental Wellness Basics course is designed to be integrated into existing lesson plans and curriculum for students in grades 8 - 10, or provided as an additional resource for support from your School Based Health Center.
To learn more about bringing this critical resource to your school, contact:
Alyssa Kobernick, EVERFI
