For numerous years there have been misconceptions about how Public Housing and Housing Choice Voucher programs provide assistance and who receives the support. During the debate of congressional budgeting, it is vital to know the role Housing Authorities play in supporting families and communities across the nation. The Public Housing Authorities Directors Association recently released a flyer to better inform the public on these misconceptions. We at the Pottsville Housing Authority recommend all concerned citizens read the brief to better understand who we help and our goal of improving our community.
