Media Q & A at Fairfield Court Management Office – 2506 Phaup Street, Richmond VA 23223
WHAT: For the first time in four (4) years RRHA is issuing 50 tenant based vouchers at RRHA’s Housing Choice Briefing event held today from 10 AM–12 PM (Noon).
Sixty-nine candidates are in attendance at this month’s in-person briefing. At the end of the briefing, 50 participants will receive a voucher to begin their journey to locate a new place to call home.
To make their search easier, RRHA is offering a dual incentive. There is a $250 incentive for current and potential landlords who have units to rent within the City of Richmond who enter into a new Housing Assistance Payment (HAP) contract with RRHA with a new (not existing) voucher holder. Additionally, RRHA will reimburse voucher participants up to $150 to assist with application fees and utility connection fees.
