The City of Douglas Housing Authority and the HACC came to the agreement in December, after years of discussing the idea. The Housing Choice Voucher Section Eight program and other public housing needs will be carried out by HACC in Douglas and Bisbee.
COCHISE COUNTY, Ariz. — The New Year brought a more efficient way for people on housing assistance to apply within the city limits of Douglas.
“I think a little bit more convenient for everyone, all of the constituents, or the Cochise County residents because now everything will be under one roof," Executive Director of Housing for Cochise County Anita Baca said."Being able to expand our program to the 193 vouchers in Douglas, it’s just such and honor for my staff and me.”
The county will distribute a total of 686 vouchers to locals who qualify. This is an increase of 193 from previous years.
