Full Process Training in February 2025
DCA provided a "train the trainer" training session to 40 representatives of DBHDD and DBHDD providers to prepare folks that can go back to their agencies, communities, and regions and assist with local trainings and answering standard questions about the Housing Choice Voucher and the housing process for those who belong to the settlement population and receive preferential access through applying to DCA's HCV via DBHDD.
The PDF labelled "Full Process Training" will have a PPT reflecting the entire HCV life cycle. For smaller presentations and trainings on subsets of the process, see the other items and recordings below but we recommend you to start with the full process.
RFTA, Inspection, Portability Training (11/15/24):
Attached to this article is the PPT slides in PDF from the training, outlining how to complete the RFTA process, Inspection basics you and the property need to know, and the HAP agreement that needs to be signed by the landlord.
Portability is also discussed in the training video toward the end of the training.
Application Completion Training (4/10/2024):
The video shared below is an April 10, 2024 meeting in which DCA provided the Housing Support Program providers training for the Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) Program. The training assisted with the applications of GHVP participants to HCV.
Attached below this article a PowerPoint presentation in PDF from DCA that provides guidance on how to complete the HCV application successfully.
Be advised that in the training, an application email address is shared but the submission process has since changed and all applications must be submitted via ZenDesk as outlined here.
