Participants are able to find their own apartments or single family homes that meet the requirements for the HCV Program. Participants may find their own housing within the County of Lackawanna, excluding Scranton and Carbondale. Those municipalities have their own separate Housing Authorities. You may contact their Housing Authorities, respectfully, for their current openings.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #333399;\">Participants will be offered a voucher based on their household size. Once participants find an apartment, and the landlord is willing to participate in the HCV program, the necessary RFTA packet will be filled out. Once all documentation is complete, a housing specialist will review the material and make a decision if the unit is affordable. If the unit is affordable, an inspection will be scheduled. Once the inspection passes, new admission into the program will be granted.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/hacl.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/bar5.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-374\" src=\"http:\/\/hacl.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/bar5-300x3.jpg\" alt=\"bar5\" width=\"300\" height=\"3\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hacl.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/bar5-300x3.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hacl.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/bar5.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333399;\"><em><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">HCV staff and contact information:<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333399;\">Inspection Dept \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Extension 306<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333399;\">Lynne Powell \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Extension 329<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #333399;\"> HCV Housing Specialist<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #333399;\"> lpowell@hacl.org<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333399;\">Joann Fanning \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Extension 308<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #333399;\"> HCV Housing Specialist<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #333399;\"> jfanning@hacl.org<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333399;\">Frank Scalzo \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Extension 326<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #333399;\"> HCV Coordinator<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #333399;\"> fscalzo@hacl.org<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #003366;\"><a style=\"color: #003366;\" href=\"http:\/\/hacl.org\/?page_id=64\">Next<\/a><\/span><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our Housing Choice Voucher Department (formerly known as Section 8) is located at: 2019 W Pine St. Dunmore, PA 18512 Phone number is (570) 342-7629 and fax number is (570) 342-5756.\u00a0\u00a0 PLEASE NOTE: ***\u00a0HCV (Housing Choice Voucher) waiting list\u00a0*** **ALL LISTS ARE NOW CLOSED** EFFECTIVE 12-20-2024 The Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) Program is a federally [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-427","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hacl.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/427","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hacl.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hacl.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hacl.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hacl.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=427"}],"version-history":[{"count":85,"href":"https:\/\/hacl.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/427\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2041,"href":"https:\/\/hacl.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/427\/revisions\/2041"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hacl.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=427"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
