About This Program in Massachusetts

In Boston, the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher program and public housing are administered by the Boston Housing Authority (BHA). Rent is income-based — generally about 30% of adjusted household income.

How to Apply in Massachusetts

Apply through BHA at bostonhousing.org when waitlists are open. Massachusetts protects renters from source-of-income discrimination statewide (M.G.L. c. 151B), so most landlords cannot refuse a Housing Choice Voucher.
