Your rights

Rhode Island protects renters from source-of-income discrimination statewide under the Fair Housing Practices Act (amended effective April 15, 2021) — a landlord generally cannot refuse you simply because you would pay with a Housing Choice Voucher. Owner-occupied two- and three-unit dwellings are exempt.

Neighborhood

North Providence is served by RIPTA bus routes with connections to downtown Providence.

For current waitlist information, call PHA at (401) 751-6400 or visit provhousing.org. Applications are free.
