There are a variety of housing programs and services available depending on the individual needs and circumstances of our clients. These pages contain information on those programs and how clients and housing providers can either access services or help meet our community's growing housing needs.

Miami-Dade County's Housing Assistance Grant Program can help eligible residents with relocation expenses.

• The Link-Up and Lifeline Florida Assistance Programs are designed to ensure that all residents of Florida have affordable access to telephone service and connections in their homes. Customers of participating telecommunications providers can now apply online using the Public Service Commission Secure On-line Application Form.
• At midnight on February 17, 2009, all television stations in the United States will stop broadcasting in analog and switch to 100% digital broadcasting. You will need a TV Converter box in order to keep using your analog TV set. Congress created the TV Converter Box Coupon Program for households to obtain up to two coupons, each worth $40, that can be applied toward the cost of eligible converter boxes

Prospective first-time homebuyers enrolled in the Community Homebuyer Club can attend the mandatory workshops. Subjects include budgeting, credit issues, the loan process, shopping for a home, homeowners insurance, home inspections and appraisals.
