Section 8 Consulting & Legal Aid Society of Palm Beach (Section 8 Landlords) Section 8 Housing
Overview of Section 8
Section 8 of the Housing Act of 1937 42 U.S. Code § 1437f - Low-income housing assistance
The Section 8 Existing Housing and Voucher Program, established by the 1974 Housing and
Community Development Act
The housing choice voucher program better known as (Section 8) is the federal government's major program for assisting very low-income families, the elderly, and the disabled to afford decent, safe, and sanitary housing in the private market. Since housing assistance is provided on behalf of the family or individual, participants are able to find their own housing, including single-family homes, townhouses and apartments.
Housing choice vouchers are administered locally by public housing agencies (PHAs). The PHAs receive federal funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to administer the voucher program.
A family that is issued a housing voucher is responsible for finding a suitable housing unit of the family's choice where the owner agrees to rent under the program. This unit may include the family's present residence. Rental units must meet minimum standards of health and safety, as determined by the PHA.
A housing subsidy is paid to the landlord directly by the PHA on behalf of the participating family. The family then pays the difference between the actual rent charged by the landlord and the amount subsidized by the program. Under certain circumstances, if authorized by the PHA, a family may use its voucher to purchase a modest home.
Landlord Responsibilities
The Landlord (Owner) as a participant in the Section 8 Program is responsible for the provision.
of decent, safe, and sanitary housing to tenants at a reasonable rent. The Owner’s dwelling unit

the owner receives assistance payments.

The Fair Housing Act, 42 U.S.C. 3601 et seq., prohibits discrimination by direct providers of housing, such as landlords and real estate companies as well as other entities, such as municipalities, banks or other lending institutions and homeowners’ insurance companies whose discriminatory practices make housing.
The Fair Housing Act defines discrimination in housing against persons with disabilities to include a failure "to design and construct" certain new multi-family dwellings so that they are accessible to and usable by persons with disabilities, and particularly people who use wheelchairs. The Act requires all newly constructed multi-family dwellings of four or more units intended for first occupancy after March 13, 1991, to have certain features: an accessible entrance on an accessible route, accessible common and public use areas, doors sufficiently wide to accommodate wheelchairs, accessible routes into and through each dwelling, light switches, electrical outlets, and thermostats in accessible location, reinforcements in bathroom walls to accommodate grab bar installations, and usable kitchens and bathrooms configured so that a wheelchair can maneuver about the space.

Hello Jay

[@joleenjennings61]

10:23am. Ogden, Ut. I have been on disability for 15 years now for the blood transfusion I received with my daughter was born. My liver is just about ruined because of this. I have been waiting to get on housing for years this past six months. I guess I was on a voucher program. However, I’m unable to get out and look around because I have to have two knee replacements. I’m stuck between a rock, and a hard spot. Basically they kicked me off and told me I have to start from the beginning to get a good beat you your weight I’m 61 almost 62 as it is in trade you in privations for 70 people is obviously impossible.

[@joleenjennings61]
