The family housing program (Chapter 200 and Chapter 705) is a state-funded program that aims to provide housing for low-income families in neighborhoods throughout the state. A family household is one person, or two or more people who live or will live regularly in the unit as their primary residence; and whose income and resources are available to meet the household’s needs, are related either by blood, marriage, or operation of law, or who have otherwise evidenced a stable inter-dependent relationship.
