About This Program in Dallas
In Dallas, the Housing Choice Voucher (Section 8) program and public housing are administered by the Dallas Housing Authority (DHA). Rent is income-based — generally about 30% of adjusted household income — whether in a DHA community or with a voucher used in private housing.
How to Apply in Dallas
Apply through DHA at dhantx.com when waitlists are open. Important: Texas has no source-of-income protection and a 2015 state law (Local Government Code § 250.007) bars cities from requiring landlords to accept vouchers, so a private landlord may legally decline yours. Federal Fair Housing protections still apply. Call DHA at (214) 951-8800.
