Elkhart, Indiana

Providing Affordable Housing to Elkhart Families Since 1962

Elkhart Housing Authority (EHA), established in 1962, serves the city of Elkhart, Indiana, and is committed to providing safe, sanitary, and affordable housing for low-and moderate-income families in the City of Elkhart. Elkhart Housing Authority is governed by 7 Board of Directors.

Elkhart Housing Authority is proud to be a part of the Elkhart community and has an assortment of Public Housing developments throughout the area. With many inviting communities, we are confident that one is the community that will make you feel right at home. Elkhart Housing Authority also administers funds through the Housing Choice Voucher (HCV)/Section 8 Program that allows low-income families the freedom to choose quality housing while maintaining rent payments they can afford. Currently, Elkhart Housing Authority manages and maintains over 672 Public Housing units and administers over 727 Housing Choice Vouchers. Our public housing communities accommodate families, seniors/elderly, veterans, individuals, and those who are disabled. Elkhart Housing Authority also offers a Foster Youth Initiative Voucher Program to help youth aging out of the foster system.

Elkhart, Indiana was founded in 1831 with the purchase of one square mile of land at the confluence of the St. Joseph and Elkhart rivers from Pierre Moran, a Pottawatomie Indian chief. Today Elkhart is known as the “world capital” of recreational vehicles, as well as manufactured housing and band instruments. Elkhart County is the number-one tourist destination in the state, primarily because of the Heritage Trail, a 90-mile journey through Amish farms, shops, small towns, and urban areas. Elkhart’s largely commercial downtown has been designated as a National Register Historic District and is also designated as a "Preserve America Community."
