Families and individuals in need of decent, affordable housing apply for homeownership with their local Habitat for Humanity.
Services: "Habitat for Humanity is an interdenominational Christian Housing Ministry created by a group of caring people who blend their talents, time and material gifts to assist those in need. Its aim is to provide simple, decent affordable housing for selected qualified families, without dependence on charity."
Each local Habitat's family selection committee selects homeowners based on three criteria:
The applicant's level of need.
Their willingness to partner with Habitat.
Their ability to repay a mortgage through an affordable payment plan.
As part of their willingness to partner, Habitat's homebuyers invest hundreds of hours of their own labor, called sweat equity, working alongside volunteers and other Habitat homeowners.
Habitat for Humanity follows a nondiscriminatory policy of family selection. Neither race nor religion is a factor in choosing Habitat's homeowners.

The Housing Choice Voucher Program (HCVP) provides rental assistance to help low income persons afford decent and safe rental housing. HCVP Programs are funded by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), and administered by public housing agencies throughout the country. The Allen Metropolitan Housing Authority (AMHA) is the housing agency that administers and HCVP Program in Allen, Auglaize, Mercer, Putnam and Van Wert counties.
This program provides
Housing Choice Voucher
A person selected to participate in HCVP is issued a rental voucher and is then free to locate a dwelling unit suitable to the family's needs and desires in the private rental market. Once the family selects a unit, AMHA must inspect the unit before initial leasing and at least annually thereafter to ensure that the unit meets HUD housing quality standards (HQS). Once the unit passes an HQS inspection, AMHA will enter into a Housing Assistance Payment (HAP) Contract with the Owner who leases the unit to the family. Thereafter CMHA pays a portion of the rent-a housing assistance payment - to the owner on behalf of the family.
Under the rental voucher program, the family is generally required to pay approximately 30% of adjusted monthly income toward rent and utilities. The Housing Assistance Payment made to AMHA to the Owner generally pays the remainder.
