The Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program is a federally-funded Housing and Urban Development (HUD) program which subsidizes the rents of eligible low-income households in the private rental market. The rental units must be approved by RHA. The rents for the units must be reasonable and the units must pass a Housing Quality Standards (HQS) inspection. RHA determines the reasonableness of the requested rent and contracts United States Contracting (USC) to conduct the inspections. If approved, the section 8 family pays a percentage (generally, 30 to 40%) of its monthly income for shelter (rent plus utilities) and RHA pays the difference directly to the owner of the unit.
