Ventura County Home Share
Ventura County manages a home share program linking people with an extra room in their house to people needing housing.
Simply put, HomeSharing is an arrangement where two or more unrelated people share a dwelling, each having her or his private space and sharing certain common areas.
Both the provider and seeker of housing are screened by the Agency. Empty nesters widowers, widows, or folks with extra rooms may be interested in co-housing.
The housing seekers could be college students, recently relocated professionals, newly divorced people, people needing low-income housing, etc.
Some providers charge rent and other providers arrange for housing in exchange for pet/house sitting, maintenance chores, help with utility costs, after school care, etc. Some situations may even allow companion animals.
This program is not intended to provide housing in lieu of medical assistance.
