How can Housing Authorities Help?
Housing Authorities (also called "Public Housing Authorities" or "Public Housing Agencies") are privately run, non-profit organizations in charge of overseeing public housing programs in a county or metro area.
Although they are privately run, Housing Authorities are government sanctioned and federally funded.
