The Wayne County Housing Authority (WCHA) provides essential housing assistance to residents of Wayne County, ensuring affordable and safe housing solutions for low-income families, the elderly, and individuals with disabilities. As a vital component of community support, the WCHA administers various programs like the Housing Choice Voucher Program (Section 8) that allows families to find private-market homes while receiving rent subsidies.
