Chicago Housing Authority - Wait-List Registration Opening Opening 10/27/2014 until 11/24/2014

I know it has been a while since I posted a resource, but I am back with a big one that needs to be shared with all of Chicago.  For the first time, CHA will simultaneously open three of its waitlists - Family Public Housing, Tenant-Based Housing Choice Voucher (formerly Section 8) and Property Rental Assistance to help fill CHA-owned and assisted rental units as they become available. This is truly a historic opportunity for Chicago.  CHA  invite low-income families and individuals to register.

If you or know someone in the need of affordable housing, please share with them that they will have four weeks to register online - for free. Those who are interested must sign up at www.thechawaitlist.org anytime between Oct. 27, 2014 and Nov. 24, 2014. All registrations received during this period will have an equal chance of being selected for the lottery.  For more information, you can call 312-971-7700.
