Welcome to The Section 8 Program!

Section 8 is known as the Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) Program, assists tenants with rents in apartments and houses owned by private landlords.

The Housing Authority, through the HCV program, pays for a portion of a tenant's rent and the tenant is responsible for the remainder. Our tenants rent apartments and houses all over Georgetown, including Mariposa at River Bend Apartments.

PORT-IN PROCESS (click here)- 
If you have a voucher already with another Housing Authority and would like to transfer to Georgetown, please read our Process on the link above. 

If you currently DO NOT HAVE a voucher issued already, GHA is NOT currently accepting any new applicants for the Section 8 program at this time.
