Who can request accommodations?

HACP applicants, residents, and participants of the Low-Income Housing Program, the Housing Choice Voucher Program (Section 8), or of the Project-Based Voucher Program.

The Housing Authority of the City of Pittsburgh (HACP) is committed to ensuring that its policies and procedures provide equal access to individuals with disabilities to participate in programs, services, and activities.

Therefore, if an individual with a disability requires an accommodation such as an accessible feature, or modification to a HACP policy, and makes a request HACP will provide such accommodation unless doing so would result in either a fundamental alteration in the nature of the program or an undue financial and administrative burden.

In such case, HACP will make an alternative accommodation that would meet the needs of the individual with a disability to the extent that it would not cause an undue financial and administrative burden to HACP.

HACP will consider each request for an accommodation on a case-by-case basis, using the above standard.

To apply for a reasonable accommodation:

• Download the required forms that correspond to your housing status
  • Low-income Public Housing (LIPH)
  • Housing Choice Voucher (HCV)
  • Project Based Voucher Housing (PBV)
  • Lemington Senior Homes 
  • Mackey Lofts
• Fill out the forms
• Return them to HACP using the address in the form
