Heading 3: The Housing Choice Voucher Program - Section 8 Another vital program managed by the Kings County Housing Authority is the Housing Choice Voucher Program, commonly known as Section 8.

Heading 4: Program Eligibility and Waiting List Information To ensure fairness and efficient allocation of resources, eligibility requirements for these programs are set by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
