Our programs
We administer three programs to support you with housing assistance and a path to growing independence.
Housing Choice Voucher Program (formerly Section 8)
The Housing Choice Voucher Program (also known as Section 8) helps low-income families, elderly persons, veterans and disabled individuals afford housing in the private market. Program participants can choose any eligible housing unit, including single-family homes, townhomes and apartments, with rent partially covered by a subsidy paid directly to the landlord.
Family Self-Sufficiency Program
The Family Self-Sufficiency Program puts individuals on a path to housing independence by connecting you with support related to your educational and employment goals.
Home Ownership Program
Our Home Ownership Program allows Housing Choice Voucher Program participants to use their rental assistance subsidy toward the mortgage on their own home.
