About This Program in Missouri

In St. Louis, the Housing Choice Voucher (Section 8) program and public housing are administered by the St. Louis Housing Authority (SLHA). Rent is income-based — generally about 30% of adjusted household income — whether in an SLHA community or with a voucher used in private housing.

How to Apply in Missouri

Apply through SLHA at slha.org (online RentCafe portal) when waitlists are open; many site-based and voucher lists are often closed. Important: a 2025 Missouri law (HB 595) nullified St. Louis''s local source-of-income ordinance and allows landlords to decline Housing Choice Vouchers, so a private landlord may now legally refuse your voucher and Missouri has no statewide protection. Federal Fair Housing protections still apply. Call SLHA at (314) 531-4770.
