WEEK 3: Voucher Services & Support
HOUSING CHOICE VOUCHER SERVICES & SUPPORT
The National Association of Housing and Redevelopment Officials (NAHRO) kicks off WEEK 3 of its August Advocacy with an incredibly important topic: Housing Choice Voucher Services & Support and Columbia Housing is ALL IN! In the third week (August 16, 2021 - August 20, 2021) of NAHRO's August Advocacy campaign, NAHRO is calling on Congress and the White House to support the housing choice voucher program for funding for mobility services and administrative fees. Housing Choice Voucher Program support helps to streamline the program, retain landlords, and empower low-income families.
The CH Advocates for Affordable Housing Campaign has set a goal of submitting 100 letters per week to Congress urging their support of allocating additional resources to address our local and national housing needs.
