The Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) program is a rental housing assistance program funded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The HCV program assists very low income persons, families, the elderly, and persons with disabilities to reside in safe, decent, rental housing they can afford.
