Empowering our communities starts with creating opportunities to learn, grow, and thrive! 🌱💙

A special thank you to Ms. Shirahfor facilitating Social Self-Sufficiency and STEM classes at Johnson-Carver through our partnership with The Bosley Clinic, Inc. By equipping residents with practical life skills while inspiring the next generation through science, technology, engineering, and math, we're building brighter futures—one class at a time.

These programs are about more than education; they're about confidence, independence, and creating pathways to success. Thank you, Shirah, for your passion, dedication, and servant leadership. Your commitment is making a lasting impact in our community! 💙✨

This information is FALSE.

At this time, the Monroe Housing Authority's Public Housing Wait List is NOT OPEN, and MHA is not accepting online applications.
