Oregon’s section of the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Rural Development is involved with helping people who have been impacted by the coronavirus outbreak. Director John Huffman says they have thousands of homeowners who received their loan through USDA Rural Development who may be having difficulty making payments until stimulus dollars come in. They are receiving letters from Rural Development outlining various options. Huffman says Rural Development is getting guidance on a daily basis on helping both individuals and those with business loans through them. A website has been set up to provide information on Rural Development loan payment assistance at rd.usda.gov/coronavirus.
