and Welfare to Work waiting lists are suspended. This action was due to
the large number of applicants currently on our waiting lists.

How
do I apply for the Public Housing Programs?
When we open the Public Housing waiting list you may pick up an application
for housing at the Hollywood Housing Authority Main Office, 7300 N. Davie
Rd. Extension between the hours of 9:00 AM - 3:00 PM Monday - Friday.
We suggest you call first to confirm that we are accepting applications
for the waiting list you wish to apply for. Under extenuating circumstances
if you are unable to pick up an application, one can be mailed to you,
either by contacting us by phone or email.

How
do I apply for the Housing Choice Voucher Program and Welfare to Work
Programs?
When we open the Housing Choice Voucher Program or Welfare to Work waiting
list, you will be required to place your name on a telephone wait list.
Walk-ins are not accepted and applications will not be completed until
you are given an appointment. This is strictly a telephone wait list.
Only one name per phone call or you may have someone call for you. Please
have available your name, address and telephone number. Eligibility requirements
and preferences will be placed in the local newspaper along with a telephone
number for the hearing and a separate line for hearing impaired TDD.

Can
I look at a unit before I apply?
The Hollywood Housing Authority does not keep units open for viewing.
Our maintenance staff works hard to renovate units as quickly as possible
so that we may call the next person on our list. Once you apply and your
name comes to the top of the list, you will be contacted for a specific
unit. At that time, you may schedule an appointment to view the unit.

How
long is the wait for housing?
The wait on each list varies, and it is impossible to give an amount of
time. It is best that you ask this question at the time you complete your
application so we can try to give you an estimated answer based on where
your application or name is on the waiting list.

Are
there any activities offered in the buildings?
We are pleased you asked! Our elderly building has several activities
including parties, bingo, arts and crafts and game day. There is also
a library for the reading enjoyment of our residents, along with videos
that may also be borrowed. The residents also conduct rummage sales to
raise money in order to subsidize the parties. Our family development
is located adjacent to a park, the elementary school, middle school and
Boys and Girls Club.
