Thank you for choosing to participate in the CMHA Housing Choice Voucher Program (HCVP).  Good property owner participants are key to the success of the program.

CMHA’s HCVP serves approximately 11,260 families throughout Hamilton County.  The HCVP supports the typical leasing arrangement between a property owner and a renter, providing a monthly subsidy payment to the property owner on behalf of the renter to fill the gap between what the renter can afford to pay and the actual market rent amount. CMHA has a strong set of guidelines that each property owner must adhere to as a participant in this program.  The property owner is responsible for screening and approving potential residents, continuously maintaining quality housing and enforcing the renter's lease. CMHA's HCVP staff will always be available to assist you with any questions.

This section of the website is designed to answer questions that you may have and provide comprehensive information about being an affiliate of the CMHA.  Click here to watch a video about the program that helps house Veterans and their families.
