Once DCHA issues a Voucher to a Family, it is the Family's responsibility to locate suitable housing that is within the Local Market Rent as determined by HUD, meets Housing Quality Standards requirements, and includes the minimum bedroom size requirements for units.
DCHA shall maintain and update referral lists of owners who have called DCHA to list their available units. The list shall be made available to Voucher holders upon request.
DCHA offers search counseling and assistance to families who are having difficulty locating appropriate housing within the Voucher term.
