Welcome to your
Parkersburg Housing Authority.

Our mission is to assist low-income families with safe, decent, and affordable housing opportunities as they strive to improve the quality of their lives through economic independence or homeownership. 

A note from our Director

On behalf of the Parkersburg Housing Authority and its Board of Commissioners, I invite you to browse through our website and explore all that we have to offer. We have developed this site to provide useful/relevant information and to better serve our residents, prospective applicants, landlords, Section 8  participants and the general public.

Within this site you will find information on how to apply for Public Housing, the Section 8 Housing Voucher Program and the PHA’s 5(h) Homeownership Program. You will also find the following policies/documents for review:

  • Public Housing Admission and Continued Occupancy Policy - coming soon!

  • Public Housing Tenant Handbook - coming soon!

  • Section 8 Administrative Plan - coming soon!

  • PHA 5-Year/Annual Plan

We have also provided links to local, state, and federal agencies that you may find beneficial in your search.  If we can help in any way, please contact us.


Ms. Amy Farnsworth
Executive Director
