Reasonable Accommodation

NYCHA provides reasonable accommodation for applicants, Section 8 voucher holders, and NYCHA residents with disabilities. A reasonable accommodation in housing is a change, modification, or alteration in policy, procedure, practice, or program that provides a qualified individual an equal opportunity to participate in, or benefit from, a program or activity.
