HATC (Housing Authority of Thurston County) finally received notice June 22nd from the US Dept of Housing and Urban Development concerning funding for the Housing Choice Voucher Program 2007. HATC was then able to send out letters to local participants passing on the good news. Housing assistance amounts will not be reduced as was previously expected.

Quote from letter:

Our staff was pained by the need to reduce benefits and now is ecstatic to be able to bring the benefits back up to the previous level.

I'm impressed with how HATC has dealt with all this. And it is a pleasure to pass on good news that affects so many low income people locally.

Congratulations!

Making that happen in Thurston County has been a hard up-hill struggle.

 Woohoo! for HATC!
