Applications are still being accepted for the Housing Choice Voucher Program — also known as Section 8. Monday, Dec 1st is the last day though so make sure to get those in immediately.
This program helps low-income families, seniors, veterans, and individuals with disabilities afford safe housing in the private market. Eligible applicants can choose from qualified houses, townhomes, or apartments, with rent partially covered through a subsidy paid directly to the landlord. Participants typically pay 30% of their gross income toward rent.
There are preferences for families who live or work in Graves County, which may help move them higher on the waiting list.
To apply, visit mayfieldhousing.com — or call 270-247-6391, extension 224 with any questions.
