Public Housing Rental Assistance

Public Housing provides assistance for low-income families, the elderly, and persons with disabilities.  In El Paso, this program includes a variety of housing sites, including multi-family developments, high-rise towers and scattered site homes.  HACEP’s low-income public housing program includes 46 family developments that consist of one-to-six bedroom apartments and four high-rise towers totaling over 6,000 units.  To 18,300 El Pasoans, these are their homes.  They are sprinkled across the city and accommodate a wide range of family sizes from studio units to six bedroom apartments. 

HACEP is committed to develop housing for persons with special needs.  Under the low-income public housing program, all developments were designed to accommodate persons with disabilities.  HACEP also has a very active scattered site rental program that consists of 260 single-family and duplex homes scattered throughout El Paso. 

Applications for the HCV Program must be submitted through HACEP’s online pre-application system.
