San Diego County approves elderly rental assistance program
SAN DIEGO (CNS) — The San Diego County Board of Supervisors approved a rental program to help low-income adults ages 55 and older to pay rent and to improve housing stability.
The Shallow Rental Subsidy Program will provide $500 a month in rental assistance to 220 senior households chosen by lottery. The 18-month pilot program launched last spring with more than 2,000 applicants, according to officials.
“The county is committed to improving the lives of San Diegans who are struggling with housing affordability and the threat of homelessness. One in four people who are experiencing homelessness in San Diego County is over 55 years old, and this population demographic is growing,” county officials said in a statement.

Hyde was described by the CHP as a 5-foot-7-inch tall man affiliated with the Soboba Band of Luiseno Indians. He weighs 180 pounds and has black hair and brown eyes. He was last seen wearing a blue bandana, gray long sleeve shirt and black pants.
Hyde is believed to be driving a silver 2014 Chevrolet Silverado pickup truck with the California license plate 00019V1.
Anyone with information regarding Hyde’s whereabouts was urged to call 911.
The Feather Alert is also in effect in Riverside, Orange, San Bernardino and Imperial counties.
The Feather Alert program was established under a bill signed into law by Gov. Gavin Newsom in 2022 to issue and coordinate alerts involving the unexplained or suspicious disappearances of Indigenous people.
Missing indigenous people is a huge problem in California. Local tribal members hope the new Feather Alert system will help, NBC 7’s Joe Little reports.
