SECTION 8 HOUSING ASSISTANCE PROGRAM

Provides a housing subsidy program by making payments to participating owners on behalf of eligible tenants to provide decent, safe, and sanitary housing for low-income families at rents they can afford. Housing assistance payments are used to make up the difference between the approved rent due to the owner for the dwelling unit and the occupant family’s required contribution toward the rent. Funding is provided by the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development to the Catahoula Police Jury, who in turn contracts with the Association to perform the services.
