The New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA) provides decent and affordable
housing in a safe and secure living environment for low and moderate- income residents throughout the five boroughs.
To fulfill this mission, NYCHA must preserve its aging housing stock through timely maintenance and modernization of its developments.
NYCHA also administers a citywide Section 8 Leased Housing Program in rental apartments. Simultaneously, we work to
enhance the quality of life at NYCHA by offering our residents opportunities to participate in a multitude of community, educational
and recreational programs, as well as job readiness and training initiatives.
