March
4, 2010 - NOHA will begin putting people back onto the Section
8 program. The first groups of clients to receive a voucher
will be:
1. Client's who were receiving
assistance in 2009 and moved from their unit when they
were notified that NOHA would be terminating assistance in
June. NOHA is currently contacting this group of
clients.
2. Client's who received a voucher in
early 2009 but had not leased up in a unit. These vouchers
were suspended by NOHA due to lack of funding. NOHA will begin
contacting this group of clients within the next
month.
NOHA will not be pulling any names from
the regular waiting list at this
time.
