Coronavirus Relief Fund (CRF)
The CRF provides $150 billion in direct payments (based on population) to state, local, and tribal governments impacted by COVID-19. We are using this funding to 1) respond to COVID-19 and keep our residents safe and healthy, 2) support residents, businesses, and nonprofits affected by COVID-19, and 3) redesign City services and facilities to mitigate the effects of the pandemic.
