Emergency Housing Voucher (EHV) Testimonies! (NOT NYC)

Hey everyone, I hope everyone is having a good day today! I just wanted to share some Emergency Housing Voucher Testimonies I have been seeing. While this information does not affect New Yorkers, these testimonies are to ignite hope within everyone who has an Emergency Housing Voucher in New York City!

I just saw that a Housing Authority “Georgia Department Of Community Affairs” ( DCA) , just informed their EHV tenants today, 6/25/26, that they were able to get funding from HUD to last until December 31,2026. Originally, I believe they were the first Housing Authority to run out of funds for EHV participants, with expected funds to run out June 30th,2026.

This new announcement to these families makes a HUGE difference. It gives families more time to get themselves together because June 30th is next week; Now they have until December.

Another testimony from Housing Authority in California, for county San Bernardino (pictured). They advised their EHV participants that EHV was ending in December 2026. However, the Housing Authority was able to gather funds by finding ways to save cost in other programs funded by HUD, to transfer the EHV participants to HCV (Housing Choice Voucher) aka regular section 8. Some families will have a higher portion to pay to offset some costs, but they will be able to stay in their homes !

There may be a lot going on with this program on a Nationwide level, but trust and believe God is showing up to help us! I say all of that to say this, don’t lose hope!!

I’ve included a picture and link to the DCA website for proof to my context.

NYCHA EHV & HPD EHV Council Meeting 6/17/26

Hey everyone, in case you are an Emergency Housing Voucher Participant, either with NYCHA or HPD, there was a Council Meeting today. This meeting is to address the EHV voucher with both Public Housing Authorities (NYCHA & HPD) in New York City.

If you were not able to attend or watch the stream live, I posted the link at the bottom of the post! It’s about 3 hours long but BOY you wanna make sure you hear EVERY part of the replay, because this information IS IMPORTANT!

ALSO, you know how NYCHA informed their tenants that the subsidies are lasting until December 31,2026… the lady in charge said MID NOVEMBER 2026 funds are running out! They also mentioned and admitted that they DO NOT have ENOUGH ready to move in units for everyone at this current time but they are working on it with City Hall. Watch it while you’re cooking, while you’re showering, make the investment to listen to the whole 3 hours, it’s actually not boring because the whole meeting is specifically aimed for EHV participants with NYCHA or HPD!

With that being sald this is NOT the time to PANIC, this is the time to brain storm with God on what ideas can be done. I do want to let everyone know, who may be afraid, there are housing options outside of New York. There are Facebook groups for Section 8 Nationwide and and Waiting list groups where you can get public housing (just like what NYCHA is offering), but in new luxury apartments, in different states with minimum rent because it’s based on your income! You can APPLY while you’re STILL living in NewYork, that way when they call or email you, you can do what you need to do to submit documents. However, speak to GOD first to make sure you’re moving where he wants you to move, if wants you to move out of New York.

Anyways, stay strong!! Thank you for all the people who testified and spoke up today at the Council Meeting To represent Emergency Housing Voucher Participants!
