Today, the PHA provides affordable housing to more than 12,000 residents in the City of Providence.  We  administer 2,606 public housing units that are home to about 5,613 residents – making us one of the largest landlords in the State. Units are designated as elderly/disabled, family, and scattered sites developments. We also oversee the administration of more than 2,700 tenant-based and project-based Section 8 vouchers, most of which allow low-income families to rent in the private market and host a variety of support programs to help our residents and participants meet their wellness, financial, and employment goals no matter what their age or ability. In addition to in-house services, the PHA provides a wide-array of referrals to partners across the state.
