About Griffin Housing Authority

Since 1950, the Housing Authority of the City of Griffin (GHA) has provided safe, decent and affordable rental housing for Griffin Georgia's low-income working and non-working family, elderly and disabled households. We currently operate three properties, totaling 250 units.

The GHA is a public, non-profit, quasi-governmental authority, chartered by the State of Georgia and funded by U.S. Housing & Urban Development (HUD) Public Housing and Capital Fund Subsidies as well as participant rental income. GHA works closely with HUD, State of Georgia, City of Griffin and local non-profit redevelopment organizations to closely consider Griffin, Georgia's low-income housing needs now and in the future.

The GHA is run by its CEO with fiduciary and policy oversight provided by its city-appointed Board of Commissioners. GHA's Resident Advisory Board ensures that budgeting and policy decisions consider resident feedback and needs. GHA operates independent of local and state government with strong regulatory guidance and review from HUD's Department of Indian and Public Housing.


Mission Statement

Beyond providing affordable housing, GHA's mission includes playing an active role in moving the people it serves toward economic and behavioral self-sufficiency. Recognizing the challenges people face when attempting to break the cycle of poverty, GHA is committed to assisting residents who are ready, willing and able to break the bonds of poverty and governmental assistance.
