Section 8 Project-Based Voucher Program

The Section 8 Project-Based Voucher Program is a federal initiative that helps low-income families, the elderly, and people with disabilities afford housing. Under this program, rental assistance is linked to specific apartments or buildings rather than individuals. Landlords receive vouchers from the government, which cover a portion of the rent, making housing more affordable for tenants. Participants usually have to meet certain income requirements and may face waiting lists. This program aims to improve access to safe, decent housing while promoting stable communities.
