Scope of Work
ATTACHMENT A
The Eviction Rent Assistance Program 2.0 Grant is intended to prevent evictions by paying past due and
future rent and utilities while distributing funds equitably.
Eligibility and Prioritization
The purpose of eligibility screening criteria is to target those most likely to become homeless but for this
assistance.
Households must meet both screening criteria:
✓ Income at or below 80% of Area Median Income (AMI).
✓ Have a missed/past due rent payment not paid or partially unpaid since March 1, 2020 and still
occupying the residence.
Grantee can determine whether or not to implement additional eligibility or prioritization criteria. Grantees
must consult with their grant coordinator if considering implementing additional criteria
Performance Measurement
Grantees must ensure equitable access to ERAP 2.0.
Equitable access means that the race and ethnicity of people entering ERAP 2.0 are similar to the
community demographics. Equitable access is measured by comparing the percent of people in poverty
by race and ethnicity to the percent of people entering ERAP 2.0 by race and ethnicity.
The percentage of head of households provided rent assistance must at least be equal the proportion to
the population living in poverty in the county for each of the following groups:
✓ People of Color (includes Black or African American, American Indian and Alaska Native, Native
Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander, Hispanic/Latinx, Asian, Other/Multi-Racial)
✓ Black or African American
✓ American Indian and Alaska Native
✓ Hispanic/Latinx
Data from all ERAP 2.0 grantees in the county will be combined for the purpose of performance
measurement and performance monitoring.
Additional performance target includes:
✓ Ten percent of households served must be youth or young adults age 18-24, this includes
emancipated 16 and 17 year olds.
By and For Subgrants
Grantees must actively work to partner with By and For organizations in their communities that assist and
serve marginalized populations. It is incumbent on the grantee to identify By and For service providers
that can best support their community members in accessing assistance.
By and For organizations are operated by and for the community they serve. Their primary mission and
history is serving a specific community and they are culturally based, directed, and substantially
controlled by individuals from the population they serve. At the core of their programs, the organizations
embody the community's central cultural values. These communities may include ethnic and racial
minorities; immigrants and refugees; individuals who identify as LGBTQ+, individuals with disabilities or
who are deaf; and Native Americans.
Partner with Dispute Resolution Centers and Civil Legal Aid Organizations

DocuSign Envelope ID: 68FDDACO-41 E4-4855-8F42-5E5F20CC91 FD
ATTACHMENT A
Grantees must coordinate with their local Dispute Resolution Centers (DRC) if one exists within their
service area. DRCs can be an important pathway to prevent evictions, and providing rent assistance can
be critical to settling disputes. Civil legal aid services continue to be a crucial support in helping
households maintain housing. Grantees should partner with these providers if one exists within their
service area.
Payments
If Grantee requires funds to facilitate payments to eligible recipients on behalf of eligible households and
Grantee has committed internal resources needed to make payments directly, Commerce will pay funds to
Grantee up to a quarterly amount upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to Commerce.

ELECTRONIC RECORD AND SIGNATURE DISCI®SURE
From time to time, Washington State Department of Commerce (we, us or Company) may be
required by law to provide to you certain written notices or disclosures. Described below are the
terms and conditions for providing to you such notices and disclosures electronically through the
DocuSign system. Please read the information below carefully and thoroughly, and if you can
access this information electronically to your satisfaction and agree to this Electronic Record and
Signature Disclosure (ERSD), please confirm your agreement by selecting the check -box next to
`I agree to use electronic records and signatures' before clicking `CONTINUE' within the
DocuSign system.
Getting paper copies
At any time, you may request from us a paper copy of any record provided or made available
electronically to you by us. You will have the ability to download and print documents we send
to you through the DocuSign system during and immediately after the signing session and, if you
elect to create a DocuSign account, you may access the documents for a limited period of time
(usually 30 days) after such documents are first sent to you. After such time, if you wish for us to
send you paper copies of any such documents from our office to you, you will be charged a
$0.15 per -page fee. You may request delivery of such paper copies from us by following the
procedure described below.
Withdrawing your consent
If you decide to receive notices and disclosures from us electronically, you may at any time
change your mind and tell us that thereafter you want to receive required notices and disclosures
only in paper format. How you must inform us of your decision to receive future notices and
disclosure in paper format and withdraw your consent to receive notices and disclosures
electronically is described below.
Consequences of changing your mind
If you elect to receive required notices and disclosures only in paper format, it will slow the
speed at which we can complete certain steps in transactions with you and delivering services to
you because we will need first to send the required notices or disclosures to you in paper format,
and then wait until we receive back from you your acknowledgment of your receipt of such
paper notices or disclosures. Further, you will no longer be able to use the DocuSign system to
receive required notices and consents electronically from us or to sign electronically documents
from us.
All notices and disclosures will be sent to you electronically
Unless you tell us otherwise in accordance with the procedures described herein, we will provide
electronically to you through the DocuSign system all required notices, disclosures,
authorizations, acknowledgements, and other documents that are required to be provided or made
available to you during the course of our relationship with you. To reduce the chance of you
inadvertently not receiving any notice or disclosure, we prefer to provide all of the required
notices and disclosures to you by the same method and to the same address that you have given
us. Thus, you can receive all the disclosures and notices electronically or in paper format through
the paper mail delivery system. If you do not agree with this process, please let us know as
described below. Please also see the paragraph immediately above that describes the
consequences of your electing not to receive delivery of the notices and disclosures
electronically from us.
