Attention Families Looking for Section 8 Voucher Assistance
Watch out for SCAMS! Reportedly, there are internet sites claiming to be application sites for voucher assistance. They are taking fees and personal information from people claiming to put them on wait lists. These are FRAUDULENT websites! The only way you can apply for voucher assistance is on-line or directly through a local housing authority whenever the wait list is open.
The Housing Choice Voucher Program is closed!
