The Division is committed to sustaining and expanding the supply of
affordable and subsidized housing. The United States Department of Housing and
Urban Development (HUD) provides funding for the core of the City’s Public
Housing operating budget, modernization program, youth after school programs,
family self-sufficiency opportunities, Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher program,
and other federally funded supportive programs.
The Division is the clearinghouse for tax credit proposals to the Arizona
State Department of Commerce and serves as the City’s liaison to the Industrial

these and other resources, this predominantly grant funded division of
government provides affordable/subsidized housing opportunities and supportive
services for low and moderate-income families in Chandler.
