About This Program in Texas
In Houston, the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher program and public housing are administered by the Houston Housing Authority (HHA). Rent is income-based — generally about 30% of adjusted household income.
How to Apply in Texas
Apply through HHA at housingforhouston.com when waitlists are open. Texas has no source-of-income protection and state law bars cities from requiring landlords to accept Housing Choice Vouchers, so you may need to find properties that choose to accept them.
