Emergency Housing Voucher Roadmap

The Emergency Housing Voucher (EHV) Roadmap is a collection of brief topic guides designed to assist participating Public Housing Agencies (PHAs) and partners in understanding the main components of the EHV program and strategies to expedite lease up of vouchers and fully utilize funding. The EHV Roadmaps are companion pieces by topic area to the EHV How to Guide for PHAs (linked within the Useful Resources section).

There are nine topic guides in total including one introductory guide (EHV 101) and eight additional guides that cover a range of different topics. Each topic guide provides key information on the relevant subject matter and outlines available resources for additional guidance.
