I realize this doesn't answer your question/s, but thought you would find it interesting / helpful.  The link below has a summary of the HAP benefits to date, by category and service.  Also, Denise Korpinen, a Realtor in San Diego, and moderator of this forum is traveling to Sacremento to meet with the HAP folks on March 9-11th.  I encourage you to write specific, concise questions on this forum and will try to get them to her for a post when she returns.   Joe Gladden
