www.housing.com The Housing Choice Voucher Program, more commonly known as Section 8 or Section 8 Rental Assistance, is a housing assistance program created and run by the federal government. It was created to help very low-income families, the elderly, and the disabled afford decent, safe, and sanitary housing in the private housing market.

I was talking to someone today who told me that her daughter was at the East Point Housing Authority where people were fighting just to get applications, individuals passed out from heat exhaustion and some died, a baby was knocked out of her mother’s arms, elderly people were knocked to the ground, people took other people’s applications out of their hands, and a child was airlifted to the hospital. People had been waiting in line for days. I understand we live in desperate times, the national unemployment rate is at 10%, and a lot of people are in need of public assistance, but I would not have embarrassed the hell out of myself on camera for all news stations to keep broadcasting again and again just to get section 8 housing assistance, which I probably would not have qualified for anyway. Just because a person was the first person to receive an application doesn’t mean that person is going to qualify for housing assistance.
