Boston’s public housing agency is making 1,000 rental housing vouchers available to homeless folks looking for long-term housing.
The Section 8 vouchers are the result of federal Housing Choice Program funding and will provide housing search assistance, stabilization services and funds for those moving into a home for the next six months, according to a press release from the city.
Boston Mayor Martin J. Walsh’s office says the Boston Housing Authority was able to secure at least $28 million for the additional vouchers from the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
