About the Housing Choice Voucher Program
The Housing Choice Voucher Program is the largest rental assistance program in the United States. It is funded by the federal government and administered by local housing authorities. At its core, the program pays a portion of rent directly to landlords so that qualified tenants with lower incomes can afford to rent throughout the local housing market.
SHA issues vouchers to eligible households to rent units just as any unsubsidized renter would. Voucher participants pay 30-40% of their income toward unit rent and utilities. The remaining rent is paid by SHA directly to the landlord via Housing Assistance Payments (HAP).
