The Housing Authority of the City of Augusta, also known as Augusta Housing Authority or AHA, was established in 1937 to provide safe and sanitary housing for low-income families in Augusta-Richmond County, Georgia. As the second largest Public Housing Authority in the state, AHA offers a range of housing options, including 1,922 units of Conventional Public Housing, 3,658 units of Section 8 tenant-based and project-based, and 135 Veteran Supportive Housing Vouchers, helping to accommodate approximately 15,309 individuals. They also collaborate with organizations like Freedom's Path and Hope House to provide affordable housing and support services for homeless veterans and women recovering from substance abuse. The Augusta Housing Authority holds regular board meetings open to the public and ensures non-discrimination based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, disability, and familial status in housing and employment. They participate in the HUD Housing Choice Voucher Program, providing rental subsidies to eligible families for decent and safe housing. AHA is committed to preventing rental housing scams and offers a free unit listing service for property owners to advertise vacancies to Section 8 HCV participants through their partnership with GoSection8.
