City of Tallulah Section 8

The City of Tallulah Section 8 (Cot-S8)'s mission is to respond to the community's need for affordable, safe, and sanitary housing as we nurture individual self-sufficiency to promote upward mobility, improve the quality of their lives and the community.

Our mission is also to anticipate and respond without discrimination of race, sex or family status.


City of Tallulah Section 8 is part of the housing choice voucher program.  This program the federal government's major program for assisting very low-income families, the elderly, and the disabled to afford decent, safe, and sanitary housing in the private market. Since housing assistance is provided on behalf of the family or individual, participants are able to find their own housing, including single-family homes, townhouses and apartments.

The participant is free to choose any housing that meets the requirements of the program and is not limited to units located in subsidized housing projects.

Vouchers are administered locally by City of Tallulah Section 8. A family that is issued a housing voucher is responsible for finding a suitable housing unit of the family's choice where the owner agrees to rent under the program.
