Tangipahoa Parish Government - Housing Authority assists about 700 households through the federal rental housing assistance program, Housing Choice Vouchers (also known as Section 8). They also assist families through the Emergency Shelter Grant (ESGP) and Rapid Re-Housing (CDBG) Programs. The majority of program funding comes from the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Programs are targeted to assist low, very low, and extremely low-income households. The vast majority of client households are extremely low-income families, seniors, veterans, persons with disabilities, and formerly homeless. "Working together with landlords, housing developers, charities, and local governments, we strive to provide housing and supportive services to as many eligible families as possible."
