Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is a public housing authority/agency (PHA)?

      A PHA is a public agency charged with providing safe, sanitary and decent housing to the most vulnerable populations in their community. This includes low-income families, especially those at risk of homelessness, as well as the elderly and disabled.

      Although housing authorities have a strong relationship with local, state, and federal governments, they are actually independent agencies. Charted under state law, a housing authority is an autonomous, not-for-profit public corporation. This organizational structure allows housing authorities to work in conjunction with local governments and agencies to develop long-term housing strategies for communities.

      Though independently run, housing authorities are required to follow federal regulations. In addition, housing authorities receive a subsidy from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). In some states, housing authorities receive funds from state or operate separate housing programs not directly subsidized by a government agency.

    • PHAs mostly administer housing programs funded by the U.S. Department of HUD, typically Federal Public Housing units and Section 8 Vouchers. PHAs may also administer state-funded programs as well as other programs funded locally.

  • Am I eligible for housing assistance?

      Eligibility is dependent on the program which you are applying for. Typically PHAs have housing programs specifically for low-income families, veterans, the disabled and elderly. Low-income ranges are published yearly by HUD and are dependent on family size and location.

  • How do I receive/apply for housing assistance?

      PHAs require an application be submitted to determine eligibility. In most cases, applications are added to a waiting list due to the high demand for low-income housing in many communities.
