Service-Enriched Rental Housing for Older Adults

Indoor Plumbing Rehabilitation Program

Provides 0% interest, forgivable loans for the installation of indoor plumbing to owners of substandard housing where indoor plumbing does not exist or where the existing water delivery or waste disposal systems have failed. Loan repayments are determined by the homeowner’s ability to make payments.

Housing Choice Voucher Program

A HUD and Virginia Housing-regulated program also known as Section 8 that assists very low-income families, people with disabilities and older adults to afford decent and safe housing in the private market. With tenant-based vouchers, participants have the freedom and flexibility to find their own single family or multifamily homes meeting appropriate housing quality standards and owned by a participating landlord.

Homeless Solutions

Coordinated Entry is provided for people experiencing a housing crisis to speak with a housing professional directly to assess the situation and make a referral to the most appropriate community partner.

Bay Aging is the Lead Agency for the Northern Neck Middle Peninsula Housing Coalition (NNMPHC) and provides administration, coordination, data management, and resource development to our housing partners across the region.
