Landlord participation is an important component to the Housing Choice Voucher Program. Landlords help the Housing Authority of the County of DeKalb achieve our mission of compassionately delivering healthy, affordable, safe, quality housing options without discrimination, with exceptional customer service while meeting high performance standards.

Landlords are recommended to conduct periodic inspections of their units/properties to ensure it is property maintained. See attachment for a list of some of the inspection items. – HQS Self-Inspection Checklist

Our Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher and Low Income Public Housing wait lists are CLOSED to the general public. We will continue to accept applications for the elderly and disabled ONLY. If you are elderly or disabled and would like to apply for assistance, click here for important information.

It’s that time again to start thinking about the 2013 tax filing season. DeKalb County Community Services will once again offer free tax preparation and filing assistance to low-income DeKalb County residents. Why go to a paid preparer when you can get the same service for free? The volunteers are certified tax preparers through the AARP VITA/ TCE programs.

Please call Jess Collins at 815-217-0192 beginning Monday, January 6, to schedule an appointment.  Tax Preparation Assistance Flyers 2014
