The Housing Advocate may be of assistance by:
- Advising Landlords about the Housing Authority Housing Choice Voucher program
- Aiding Landlords and tenants in understanding leases
- Helping tenants to be successful in keeping their housing
- Providing resource information about leases, evictions, community services and compliance with Fair Housing regulations (including complying with ADA regulations).
