Eligibility requirements and application procedures are different than those of other programs. Individuals and households participating in the LIPH program earn 80% of area media income or less to qualify, and typically pay 30% of their monthly income for rent and utilities. Section 8

The Housing Choice Voucher Program (commonly referred to as Section 8) issues vouchers that pay a portion of the monthly rent for privately owned units. The Dowagiac Housing Commission screens applicants and provides eligible households with a voucher (also referred to as subsidy). Vouchers may be used to lease a unit from any landlord in Dowagiac eligible to participate in the program. The households in this program must earn 30% of area median income or less to qualify.
