Rental Assistance Demonstration

In 2014, the Philadelphia Housing Authority (PHA) received approval from the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to convert a portion of its public housing properties to project-based assistance under the Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) program. RAD offers PHA flexibility to preserve affordable housing, leverage new resources to address capital needs, and provide a more stable and reliable funding source in the face of continued federal cutbacks to the public housing program.
