The Orlando Housing Authority (OHA) is an independent public corporation established in 1938, funded primarily by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Governed by a seven-member Board of Commissioners appointed by the Mayor of the City of Orlando, OHA operates with the goal of providing affordable rental housing units to low-income individuals, families, and the elderly through various programs such as Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers and Public Housing. OHA is committed to ensuring equal access to its resources and services for persons with disabilities.
As a Move To Work (MTW) agency since 2011, OHA also focuses on managing and maintaining its housing and public spaces, as well as providing residents with programs and opportunities that promote social and economic enrichment. With a dedication to equal housing opportunities, OHA operates in compliance with federal laws and HUD policies, prohibiting discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, physical or mental handicap, familial status, national origin, or other protected classes.
