Who can apply

How to apply

1. Call the building at 313-923-3517 (managed by Trinity Continuing Care Services) and ask whether the waiting list is open and how to get an application.
2. Most buildings keep their own waiting list — this is separate from the Detroit Housing Commission (DHC) Section 8 voucher list.
3. Submit proof of income, ID for every household member, and Social Security numbers where available.
4. When your name comes up, the management office verifies eligibility and offers a unit.

Your rights

Michigan Senate Bills 205-207, effective April 2, 2025, prohibit source-of-income discrimination statewide, including refusal of Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers; landlords who own five or fewer rental units are generally exempt
