About Us

The Delaware Housing Access Association (DHAA) is a partnership of all five Public Housing Authorities (PHAs) in the State of Delaware. This partnership streamlines the application process for the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher program and other affordable housing properties managed by housing authorities.

The DHAA utilizes RevoList, an application ranking and synchronization software system, which allows applicants to apply for and manage their applications through a single, centralized access point using an AffordableHousing.com Renter account.

Please note that each participating PHA selects participants for their housing programs based on their local policies. The DHAA launched the Affordable Housing Hub in September 2024 and advises applicants to check the status of their application at least once a year.

Housing Assistance

Section 8/Housing Choice Voucher Program
The Section 8 program, also known as the Housing Choice Voucher Program, provides rental assistance to low-income families, allowing them to afford safe and decent housing in the private market. PHAs allow the use of a common application to apply to any open Section 8 waiting list currently accepting applications.            

Please Note: If selected, you will need to reside within the issuing PHA's jurisdiction, so apply in areas where you would like to live. Due to high demand, applications will be placed on a waiting list. Please note that PHAs may open and close their application periods at different times.
