The requirements for the Citrus County SHIP program have recently been revised. Due to the overwhelming demand, potential applicants must be a resident of Citrus County for twelve continuous months in order to apply. Also, the program was open to both low and moderate income households, and has now been revised to solely serve very low and low income households.What is the SHIP Program?
