Section 8 Project-Based Voucher Program

About Project-Based Vouchers

The Section 8 Project-Based Voucher program provides a monthly rental subsidy for low-income households, with rent typically 30 percent of adjusted monthly household income. The Project-Based Voucher program differs from the tenant-based Housing Choice Voucher program in that the rental subsidy is tied to the housing development, or to a unit within the development.

Application Process

The GRHC is currently accepting new applicants to developments supported through this program.

Apply Online

Please note that there are currently waiting lists for all GRHC-owned project-based developments and we are currently accepting new applicants for senior developments only.

Voucher Portability

After one year of occupancy in a project-based unit, if the tenant adheres to all lease requirements, the household is eligible for tenant-based assistance through the Housing Choice Voucher program or other tenant-based assistance program.
