Merced Families Are Being Denied Housing Help — It’s Time for Accountability!

Merced Families Are Being Denied Housing Help — It’s Time for Accountability!

Recent signers:
Robynn Bento and 13 others have signed recently.

The Issue

For too long, residents in Merced County have faced unfair treatment from the Housing Authority — people being told their paperwork was “missing,” “late,” or “not received,” even after submitting everything on time.

These are real families, seniors, and people with disabilities being left without the housing assistance they were promised.
Meanwhile, Merced County continues to receive millions in federal and state funds to “help” the homeless and low-income families — yet many applicants are being ignored or denied without explanation.

We’re demanding answers, transparency, and accountability.
The Housing Authority of the County of Merced is a taxpayer-funded agency, and it must treat all residents fairly — regardless of race, disability, or background.
