Housing Authorities

The program is a local public housing authority that provides rental subsidies in the form of Section 8 vouchers for low-income adults 62 years and older; families; and people who have disabilities. Clients pay approximately 30% of their adjusted monthly income toward their rent, and the program pays the remaining balance directly to the landlord. There are income and geographic restrictions.

People who qualify receive approval to locate housing which meets program requirements. In many instances, people may be able to remain in their present residence as long as the landlord is willing to participate in the program. Glendale welcomes Section 8 participants from other communities to move to Glendale through portable voucher programs.
