Services Overview
Tenant Based
Assistance
Section 8 Housing is a government-funded program that helps low-income households afford a rental on the private marketplace directly with a landlord from the inventory of market-rate rental units.
Project Based
Assistance
We own single family homes, apartments, and townhome communities throughout the county. The rents are set at an affordable market rate, and units are subsidized through HUD or Rural Development.
Family
Self-Sufficiency
Available to Housing Choice Voucher participants, we work with families and individuals to create a path to independence, increased income, and bright futures. These valuable services are always free of charge.
Waiting Lists
The CDA works with communities and partners throughout the county to provide rental housing for our citizens. Unfortunately, the demand for these essential programs far exceeds the funding available to make more opportunities accessible for all. To learn more please click below.
