| The HCV Rental Assistance Program
was established by the Housing and Community Development Act of
1974. This program, funded by HUD and formerly known as "Section
8," provides rental subsidies to up to 647 low-income families
who live in privately-owned housing units throughout Ansonia, Shelton,
and Seymour..
Families pay approximately 30% of their income
for housing and utilities. The Ansonia Housing Authority pays the
difference between the payment standard and the amount contributed
by the family as a subsidy directly to the landlord.
The HCV Program is a partnership
between private landlords, low-income families, and the Housing
Authority. We recognize that it takes all three parties working
together to make this program a success, and appreciate the landlord's
contribution to this effort.
