Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program
The Housing Authority provides subsidies for low-income families to help
them meet their monthly rent payments through the Section 8 Housing Choice
Voucher Program. Applicants must meet income and citizenship criteria. Eligible
rental housing must be in the City of Norwalk and meet health and safety
standards. At this time, the Housing Authority is not accepting
new applications due to the length of its waiting list.
