PROJECT-BASED VOUCHERS (PBV)
The Project Based Vouchers (PBV) Program is designed to offer assistance to individuals and families residing in designated apartment buildings that meet specific criteria. This program uniquely ties a voucher to a particular unit within a specific property. It is important to note that if you currently reside in a unit with a PBV and decide to move, the Section 8 assistance associated with the voucher may remain with the property. However, the voucher itself does not automatically move with you. Currently, the Housing Authority administers the PBV program throughout the City of Long Beach for specific buildings, each with its own set of admission criteria.
List of Participating Buildings and Admission Criteria:
For your convenience, here is a list of buildings where the PBV program is currently active, along with the specific criteria for admission. Please do not contact the properties directly, as they will not have information on obtaining assistance through the program.
