In November 2018, EHA successfully transitioned from traditional public housing roots to HUD’s Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) program after five years of planning and implementation.  In a cooperative effort, EHA and its non-profit affiliate, Advantix Development Corporation, renovated and converted subsidy assistance for all 888 units of public housing to project-based vouchers.  The conversion ultimately secures EHA’s ability to provide affordable housing well into the future for our residents and the community as a whole. EHA also administers 1,906 Housing Choice Vouchers (HCV), 31 Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing (VASH) Vouchers, and 14 Homeownership Vouchers, ultimately serving nearly 5000 individuals throughout the City of Evansville at any given time. Families and individuals receiving housing assistance have the opportunity to participate in self-sufficiency programs such as the Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS) Program, YouthBuild Evansville, Caldwell YMCA, and Fulton Boys and Girls Club. In addition, EHA’s Resident Service Department works diligently with resident councils and community partners to offer our residents and members of the community a variety of workshops, health fairs, and food programs to name a few.
