The State of North Carolina chartered the Raleigh Housing Authority, RHA, in 1938. The first two developments constructed to replace substandard housing in the City of Raleigh were occupied in 1940 and 1941. Currently, RHA owns and manages nearly 2,000 public housing units and administers over 3,500 Section 8 vouchers. The occupancy rate for public housing is 98+% and the Section 8 Program is 100% utilized. There is a waiting list for both programs.
RHA has a seven member Board of Commissioners
