Enterprise Housing

Enterprise, Alabama

Our Mission
To create decent and sanitary housing in inclusive communities for eligible families and to provide opportunities and promote self-sufficiency and economic independence for residents. In achieving this mission, we will:

• Recognize residents as our ultimate customer,
• Improve Public Housing Authority Management and service delivery efforts through effective and efficient management of resources,
• Seek problem-solving partnerships with residents, the community, and local and state government,
• Apply Housing Authority resources to the effective and efficient management and operation of public housing programs while taking into account changes in Federal Funding.

What We Do
HUD defines “cost-burdened families” as those who pay more than 30% of their income for housing. According to recent Census reporting, almost half of the renter households in the United States are cost-burdened. The Enterprise Housing Authority works to bring hearts and homes together, serving approximately 300 low and very-low-income families in the Enterprise area by providing rental assistance through two major HUD programs: Public Housing and the Housing Choice Voucher Program (formerly Section 8). Families in the Public Housing program also have access to the free program, Resident Opportunities for Self-Sufficiency (R.O.S.S.), which is designed to help residents achieve their financial and educational goals in working towards self-sufficiency.

EHA manages 150 public housing units at four locations: Nance Circle, William Donald, Damascus Apartments, and Nell Court, and administers 195 Housing Choice Vouchers in Enterprise.
