With a broad set of tools including standards enforcement, tenant resources, and the creation of new affordable housing, HPD is committed to making New York City a more affordable place for renters and homeowners alike.
Your Team:
The Office of Housing Access and Stability (“HAS”) consists of the divisions of Housing Opportunity, Tenant and Owner Resources, Housing Stability, Budget and Program Operations, and Program Policy and Innovation. The mission of the office is to ensure fair, efficient, and transparent access to affordable housing. The Office provides subsidies, placement services, and tools that connect New Yorkers to affordable housing and ensures vulnerable households in subsidized housing have the support they need to be safely housed. Housing Access is committed to expanding housing choices, affirmatively furthering fair housing, and stabilizing the financial health of buildings.

Your Impact

The City Housing Assistance Program (CHAP) is a city funded rental assistance program administered by the New York City Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD). The program provides rental assistance to low-income households with incomes at or below 50% of Area Median Income (AMI) who are at risk of homelessness, including eligible rent-stabilized households facing eviction for nonpayment of rent and certain households residing in shelter who do not qualify for existing rental assistance programs. CityHAP helps eligible households maintain stable, permanent housing by subsidizing their rent, with the household generally contributing 30% of its adjusted monthly income toward rent. The program provides targeted assistance to New Yorkers facing housing instability while helping preserve rent-stabilized housing and prevent homelessness.
Coordinators in the Division of Tenant and Owner Resources report directly to the Director or the Deputy Director of the program. They plan, implement, coordinate, monitor and evaluate programs and events which provide essential services to rental subsidy participants in the communities served. Coordinators also supervise and mentor staff to ensure that the service needs for HPD’s clients are being met.
