Applications for Mainstream vouchers available July 30

Posted On: July 20, 2020

Volusia County’s Community Assistance Division will accept 250 pre-applications for the federally funded Mainstream Voucher Program beginning at noon Thursday, July 30. The list will close when this number is reached. 

The Mainstream Voucher Program mirrors the Housing Choice Voucher Program (Section 8), but is limited to 12 months of assistance and only non-elderly individuals and families with disabilities who have experienced homelessness or are at risk of becoming homeless can qualify. 

Applications must be submitted online at https://section8.vcgov.org. Interested persons can apply from a personal computer, mobile phone or tablet. 

To qualify, individuals and families must provide supportive documentation of age and disability. Persons with a disability or limited English proficiency who need assistance to complete a pre-application must contact the Section 8 office by July 27 to schedule an appointment. 

For more information, contact the Community Assistance Division at 386-736-5955 or section8wl@volusia.org.
