Other Programs
5 programsThese programs are administered by this housing authority but do not have active waitlist openings at this time. Statuses are verified nightly and subscribers will be notified when changes are detected.
The Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher waiting list is currently closed.
The Housing and Redevelopment Authority of Mound (HRAM) is not accepting Public Housing waiting list applications at this time. The HRAM offers one Public Housing community with 50 units for families and senior/disabled households, ranging in size from studios to 1 bedroom units. Eligibility is based on annual gross income, household composition (elderly, disabled, or family), and U.S. citizenship or eligible immigration status.
Mainstream Vouchers provide rental assistance specifically for non-elderly persons with disabilities. The program helps individuals transition out of institutional settings or avoid institutionalization by subsidizing housing costs in the private market.
Project-Based Vouchers are tied to specific housing units rather than following the tenant. Landlords or developers partner with the housing authority to reserve units for eligible low-income families. Unlike tenant-based HCV vouchers, PBV assistance stays with the unit if the tenant moves.
The Rental Assistance Demonstration program converts Public Housing units to project-based assistance, allowing housing authorities to leverage private funding for property rehabilitation while preserving long-term affordability for residents.
