Subsidized Housing Alert

Evictions from subsidized housing can be more complicated than other evictions. These evictions can also have consequences besides just having to move out of your home. Losing your housing subsidy can make it harder for you to find affordable housing in the future. If you have a housing subsidy and are facing eviction or termination of your voucher, you may want to call your local legal services office to see if you can get help. Use the Guide to Legal Help to find a legal services office in your area.
