Additional Thoughts
The United States government has hundreds of agencies and programs. Some work well, and some maybe don’t work as well as we might want them to. We think one of the most effective government programs out there is the The Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) program, also known as Section 8. HCV is a federal program that helps with finding and subsidizing rental homes for low-income families, the elderly, and people with disabilities. The program is administered by public housing agencies (PHAs) that receive federal funds from Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The HCV program is a shining example of a great public/private partnership between a government agency and private businesses. The HCV program is a rarity in that you have three different groups achieving their goal, while benefiting the overall society at the same time.
1) Government achieves its goal of reducing homelessness and providing quality housing for its population.
2) Tenants are able to get quality housing at a greatly subsidized price.
3) Landlords are able to get market rate rents or sometimes above market rate rents for their rental properties with a large portion of that rent guaranteed by the US government. We at housingauthorityresearch.

We at housingauthorityresearch.org think the HCV program is probably the best government program there is in America and that’s why it’s so important to educate as many people as we can about how best to work with the program and thrive.”
