Emergency Housing Vouchers

Emergency Housing Vouchers are a new resource for our community and are different than any other housing resource that has previously been available.  MDHI is working with each Public Housing Authority to determine who might best be served by this resource.  Populations eligible for support include:

·  Households experiencing literal homelessness (staying in shelter, staying in a place not meant for human habitation, or staying in a motel paid for by an agency)

·  Households with recent homelessness (currently living in housing for formerly homeless people)

·  Households currently fleeing domestic/intimate partner violence or human trafficking

If you are experiencing literal homelessness you should connect with a homeless service provider to determine eligibility for the OneHome Coordinated Entry System. If you are currently fleeing domestic or intimate partner violence or human trafficking please reach out to a Victim Service Provider.  You can view this list of homeless service agencies or call 2-1-1 for support.  MDHI cannot support individual requests for support for Emergency Housing Vouchers and households in need must work with a partner agency.
