WHAT ARE
HOUSING CHOICE (SECTION 8) VOUCHERS?
"The Housing Choice (Section 8) voucher program is the federal
government's major program for assisting very low-income families, the
elderly, and the disabled, to rent decent, safe, and sanitary housing
in the private market. Since the rental assistance is
provided on behalf of the family or individual, participants are able
to find and lease privately owned housing, including single-family
homes, townhouses and apartments. The participant is free to choose
any housing that meets the requirements of the program."
"A family that is issued a rental voucher is responsible for
finding and selecting a suitable rental unit of the family's choice.
This unit may include the family's present residence. Rental units
must meet minimum standards of health and safety, as determined by the
Detroit Housing Commission. A rental subsidy is paid to the landlord
directly by DHC on behalf of the participating family. The family then
pays the difference between the actual rent charged by the landlord
and the amount subsidized by the program." |
