For Your Information - March 26th - Liberty County Housing Authority

On For Your Information this week, my guests are Debra McGinnis and Josephine Perry, Executive Director and Chairperson of the Board, respectively, for the Liberty County Housing Authority (LCHA), who talked to listeners concerning how the LCHA operate to secure housing for those in need in Cleveland and Liberty County. They explained the difference between the LCHA and Liberty County Housing Assistance which operates an apartment complex in both Cleveland and Dayton. While that group can only provide places to live within their respective apartment complexes, LCHA provides homes in wide-ranging sizes, types, and styles anywhere in the county as long as the properties pass Federal Housing Authority guidelines. McGinnis said the LCHA is always looking for more eligible property, and asked landlords to submit their names, and housing, to LCHA to qualify for acceptance in the program. They went on to explain how individuals and families received help with housing through LCHA.
