Housing & Neighborhood Preservation administers the federally funded Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) program for Virginia Beach. The program assists households with low income to afford decent, safe, and sanitary housing in the private market by subsidizing all or part of their rent. This subsidy is paid directly to the landlord.
In Virginia Beach, more than 2,000 households, including families, seniors, persons with disabilities, and veterans are able to afford rental housing through the HCV program.
This free service allows rental assistance tenants to view and update their information quicker and at your convenience -- any time.
Portability is the ability of an HCV participant to transfer their voucher from one jurisdiction to another.
All Virginia Beach HCV participants are welcome to be a part of the Resident Advisory Board to hear updates and give your input on important issues involving the program.
The FSS program provides families participating in the HCV program with the tools and support to gain financial independence and achieve self-sufficiency.
