About Macon Housing Authority

MHA is one of the first public housing authorities in the country to be awarded a Commitment to Enter into a Housing Assistance Payments (CHAP) under the Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) Program and has successfully converted a total of 307 units into the RAD Program with 729 additional units in the pipeline.

In 2013 MHA converted three public housing properties to the Rental Assistance Demonstration model. This represented the second and third RAD closings in the country. In addition, McAfee Towers, Inc. and Felton Partners, LP, are the first and second operating RAD properties in the country. MHA retained ownership and continues to manage all of the properties.

Prior to the conversion, MHA developed a RAD Conversion Model which covers all aspects of the process from RAD Application, to closing, to program implementation. This model takes an organized team approach and involves representatives from all departments that will be affected by the conversion and ensures a seamless and efficient transition between programs.

NHC was created by 10 Georgia Public Housing Authorities and the Georgia Department of Community Affairs, which together, govern its operations.  Each Board Member brings a vast history of expertise and demonstrated success managing public housing operations.
