Mainstream Vouchers provide rental assistance specifically for non-elderly persons with disabilities. The program helps individuals transition out of institutional settings or avoid institutionalization by subsidizing housing costs in the private market.
Project-Based Vouchers are tied to specific housing units rather than following the tenant. Landlords or developers partner with the housing authority to reserve units for eligible low-income families. Unlike tenant-based HCV vouchers, PBV assistance stays with the unit if the tenant moves.
The Rental Assistance Demonstration program converts Public Housing units to project-based assistance, allowing housing authorities to leverage private funding for property rehabilitation while preserving long-term affordability for residents.
USDA Rural Development finances affordable rental housing in rural areas, including Section 515 properties and Farm Labor Housing, often with rental assistance attached to specific developments.
Section 202 funds supportive housing for very low-income households aged 62 and older, pairing affordable units with services that help residents live independently.
