​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​The Ann Arbor Housing Commission has converted all of its affordable ​housing properties to project-based vouchers under the HUD Rental ​​​Assistance Demonstration (RAD) program 

Affordable Housing was formerly the Public Housing (PH) program. It is now the RAD Project Based Voucher (PBV) program. The PH and PBV programs are very similar from the tenant's perspective. Under both programs, the tenant pays 30 percent of the adjusted household income on rent, and HUD provides a rental subsidy to the AAHC for the difference between the tenant's rent and the cost of the apartment. The subsidy is attached to the apartment under both programs and the AAHC is the property manager.

Section 8​ Housing Choice Voucher is another rental subsidy program under which a voucher is used to help qualified residents obtain housing from any private landlord that will accept Section 8 participants in Washtenaw and Monroe counties. Tenants pay that landlord the calculated rent, and the Housing Commission pays the landlord the difference between the rent and the actual cost of the apartment. ​

Project-Based Voucher is a rental subsidy program where the subsidy is attached to the apartment. Under this program the owner is a third party private landlord that is under contract with AAHC to subsidize a set number of units. The tenant pays 30 percent of the adjusted household Income on rent, and the AAHC provides a rental subsidy to the private owner for the difference between the tenant's rent and the cost of the apartment.
