5.5 Million to Support Rental Assistance in 2018
While HRHA owns and manages 280 housing units in Harrisonburg, a majority of families receiving housing assistance rent from private landlords through the Housing Choice Voucher Program (HCV). Voucher participants pay a portion of the rent based on their income, and
HRHA pays the rest of the rent directly to the landlord. In 2018, the $5.5 million in rental assistance included rental payment to 200+ private landlords housing over 600 families. We are incredibly grateful for our participating landlords, who provide affordable housing units throughout the City of Harrisonburg and Rockingham County.
Currently, HRHA administers 883 vouchers, and is always seeking participating landlords. There are many benefits to partnering with HRHA, including guaranteed payment by HRHA, maintained independence, and more.
