Housing Authority of the City of San Buenaventura

SECTION 8 / HOUSING CHOICE VOUCHER PROGRAM

The Housing Authority of the City of San Buenaventura is a federally funded, non-profit, public agency serving the City of Ventura. We administer a rental subsidy program called the Housing Choice Voucher Program. Program participants must find their own place to rent from a landlord or property management company using the Voucher to pay for part of the rent. Generally, the Voucher holder will pay between 30%-40% of their household income toward rent and the Housing Authority will pay the difference, directly to the property owner each month. Without the participation of willing landlords, families can experience difficulty finding a good place to live.

The Housing Authority team understands that a cooperative partnership with local landlords is critical to securing affordable housing for low and moderate income families. The Housing Authority continually seeks out new owners and property management companies to participate in the Voucher Program.

Sequestration affects Housing Choice Voucher Program

The Housing Authority's Housing Choice Voucher Program (Section 8) is being negatively impacted by the Sequestration of the Federal Budget.
