Hawaii Public Housing Authority

The Hawaii Public Housing Authority (HPHA) plays a crucial role in providing safe and affordable housing options for low-income residents of Hawaii. Positioned as the key conduit for state and federal government housing assistance programs, HPHA administers public housing and the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher program across the islands. Their mission is to open doors to families, seniors, and individuals seeking economical accommodations amidst Hawaii's expensive real estate market. However, beyond housing, residents often need additional financial support.

For individuals and families navigating the complexities of financial assistance, there are numerous value-adding financial tools and programs available. HPHA also coordinates with local organizations to offer guidance on utilizing financial aid, budgeting effectively, and exploring low-interest credit card options that cater to low-income households. Engaging with these programs can empower residents not only to secure housing but also to build their financial stability.
