Who We Are

People Inc. manages the Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) program.  The program provides decent, affordable housing to very low- to low-income individuals and families, including people with disabilities and senior citizens.

People Inc is a public housing authority where individuals can apply for Section 8 housing vouchers through HUD.  Vouchers allow qualifying prospective tenants to select from a wider range of housing options, as opposed to being limited to designated housing projects. The tenant pays the landlord a percentage of their monthly income towards the rent, with the voucher subsidizing the remainder.



All waiting list openings are announced through advertisements in local newspapers. The announcement will advise the public of the date and time the waiting list will be accepting applications as well as the website to use to apply for placement on the waiting list.



The priorities of the program are for very low-income families, the elderly and the disabled paying over 50% of gross income for rent and presently living in rental housing.
