What are Housing Choice Vouchers?

Housing Choice Vouchers are part of a federally funded program designed to make housing affordable for low-income families, seniors, and individuals with disabilities. The vouchers allow participants to choose their own housing, including apartments, townhomes, or single-family homes, as long as the property meets program guidelines.

How does it work?

Participants pay approximately 30% of their adjusted income toward rent, with the voucher covering the remaining approved cost. WRHA works closely with landlords and property owners to ensure housing units meet health and safety standards.
