Section 8 · Housing Choice Vouchers

Public Housing Authority (PHA) Directory

A PHA is the local agency that runs Section 8 in your city or county. Use this directory to find major housing authorities by state, then apply through the official waiting list—not through this website.

How to use this directory

  1. Open your state guide below for prominent PHAs, phone numbers, and apply links.
  2. Confirm the agency that serves your city or county (some metros have more than one PHA).
  3. Apply only when that PHA’s waiting list is open. Keep your contact info updated while you wait.
