About East Baton Rouge Housing Authority

The East Baton Rouge Housing Authority is an independent, autonomous agency. Its leadership and policy making are vested in a Board of Commissioners who are appointed by the Baton Rouge City-Parish and serve without pay for the good of the community.

Since its inception, more than sixty years ago, the East Baton Rouge Housing Authority has provided housing and rental assistance to thousands of residents through its Public Housing and Assisted Housing (formerly Section 8) programs. Today, the EBRP Housing Authority serves approximately 3,634 families.
