For the foreseeable future, WHEDA will not be issuing Housing Choice Vouchers due to funding shortfalls. Please check back for updates as the situation changes.
Effective April 8, 2025, WHEDA is closing all Housing Choice Voucher waiting lists and will not be accepting new applications at this time.

- the Emergency Housing Voucher holder surrenders their voucher or assistance is terminated, or
- the Emergency Housing Voucher expires without the family signing a lease
