About This Program in Tennessee
In Memphis, the Housing Choice Voucher (Section 8) program and public housing are administered by the Memphis Housing Authority (MHA). Rent is income-based — generally about 30% of adjusted household income — whether in an MHA community or with a voucher used in private housing.
How to Apply in Tennessee
Apply through MHA at memphisha.org using its applicant portal when a waitlist is open; MHA uses site-based lists that are often closed. Important: Tennessee has no statewide source-of-income protection and landlord participation is generally voluntary. Memphis''s Fair Housing Ordinance has been described as covering source of income, but sources conflict on whether it compels acceptance — verify locally. Call (901) 544-1107 for portal help.
