The Longmont Housing Authority manages housing programs that ensure low and moderate income residents of Longmont have safe, decent, and affordable housing. The LHA and its sister agency, Longmont Housing Development Corporation (LHDC), together operate eleven combined programs or residential properties that assisted 716 households in 2007, an increase of 60 households (9%) from the 656 households served in 2006. The increase came from the growth of three programs; the Housing Choice Voucher Program (Section 8), Tenant-Based Rental Assistance Program, and the Briarwood apartments.

The Authority is governed by a five-member volunteer Board of Housing Commissioners appointed to five-year terms by the City Council. They are dedicated, passionate, and knowledgeable affordable housing advocates.

The majority of LHA's services are funded primarily from the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development; the remainder is funded by local and state grants, and rental income. In 2007 the Authority managed housing assistance services in four program areas; Housing Choice Vouchers, Housing First Programs, the real estate portfolio of 158 housing units, and Community Collaboration Activities.
