The City of Plaquemine Section 8 rental assistance program increases affordable housing choices for low income households by allowing families to rent privately-owned homes. Unlike the public housing program, which subsidizes the construction and operation of housing development, the Section 8 program supplements what individuals can afford to pay for housing in the private market. This approach allows recipients to choose moderately prices housing based on the type and local that best meets their needs.

Our mission is to provide affordable housing to eligible people within our community while creating and promoting opportunities for independence, self-sufficiency, and an improved quality of life.
